Hello Mehul, 

for HTML you would need to find/modify/write your own css template. I find the relatively recent Bootstrap package rather convenient for doing things like that because it defines a grid right away out of the box and gives you the means for defining columns and rectangular areas (boxes). http://getbootstrap.com. See http://getbootstrap.com/getting-started/#examples and http://getbootstrap.com/examples/jumbotron-narrow/ 

There is a package integrating orgmode export with bootstrap called o-blog. https://github.com/renard/o-blog. Here is an example of source code in a second column next to text: 
http://renard.github.io/o-blog/index.html (scroll down a little after the large heading "Quick Start Guide").

For LaTeX/PDF, this should suffice:

#+LATEX_CLASS_OPTIONS: [twocolumn]

For HTML, I have no idea.



One of the things I would like to do is be able to have two side-by-side source code blocks so that I can do a comparison of the two.
