Is this only possible with tmux? Is there a step learning curve with tmux?

If it is not possible with GNU Screen it would be the first feature I've seen that Tmux has over it.

tmux probably takes about a day to learn the basics of. If all you get out of it is the ability to split your terminal screen even inside a remote SSH connection I'd say it's worth it.

You can fall down an unexpectedly vast rabbit hole with its customisability, however, since multiplexers see so much of what's going on in a very general way (by design).
