What for?
The PCI bios allocates the addresses as they fit - where exactly the cards
are located in IO space should not matter, as long as the areas do not
overlap (which can only happen if the PCI BIOS or the PCI config space on
one of the cards is plainly broken).

You *might* be able to achieve this by using manual settings in the PCI
section of the Bios setup.
