Cisco, Router, 800 series, how to connect to a romote network on the same subnet as the local network

I have a client who wants to connect their Head office to a branch office. they are using to Cisco 805 routers over a leased line. I have configured the two routers correctly am able to ping either direction. The client wants the LAN at the branch office to be on the smae subnet as the Head office.
Is it possible to configure the two lans on the same subnet? if this is possible how do i go about it.
Below are the configurations that i had on the routers

RouterA#sh run
Building configuration...

Current configuration : 780 bytes
!
version 12.3
service timestamps debug datetime msec
service timestamps log datetime msec
service password-encryption
!
hostname RouterA
!
boot-start-marker
boot-end-marker
!
enable secret 5 xxxxxxxx
enable password xxxxxx
!
no aaa new-model
ip subnet-zero
no ip domain lookup

interface Ethernet0
 ip address 10.1.0.1 255.255.0.0

interface Serial0
 ip address 10.2.0.1 255.255.255.252
 encapsulation ppp

end

The client wants me to change RouterA etherner0 to 192.168.165.5 255.255.0.0  and RouterB ethernet0 to 192.168.165.10 255.255.0.0.

Is this possible?
