Always keep in mind that Scribus spinboxes can do math.
1. Make an A4 document in Landscape orientation. Create a rough vertical guide by click-hold in left margin where the vertical scale is, and slide it onto the page.*
2. Go to Page > Manage Guides, click your vertical guide.
3. Enter 841.89/2 if you're using points as units, 297/2 if you're using millimeters.
4. Click Apply to All Pages

You now have a vertical guide exactly half way across all pages, creating A5 spaces to work in.

* You can skip this rough guide creation if you want, and just click Add in the Manage Guides dialog.
