Do you mean something like:
| % screen -S sockname
| % screen -x sockname -X 'split'
| % screen -x sockname -X 'split -v'
| % screen -x sockname -X 'focus down'
| % screen -x sockname -X 'split -v'
.. where ‘sockname’ is the name you give to your screen session at
startup .. such as ‘session1’.. or whatever..¹
For details, see:
| % man screen
| % info screen
| % screen --help

¹ The above does it remotely, targeting an already-running screen
session, but naturally, you could stick the same commands in your
~/.screenrc, like so:
| screen -S sockname
| split
| split -v
| focus down
| split -v
.. and you will have four sub-windows immediately after you fire up
screen
