Example

  1. cpu with 8 cores
  2. animation with 16 frames
  3. one fluid physics domain

It takes 32 seconds to bake the fluid physics cache frames 0 to 16

Can I decrease the baking time to 16 seconds by baking frame 0-7 on one instance and frame 8-16 on another?

No, this doesn't work. To make calculation in 8-16 frames, you have to get the results of calculation 0-7 frames as input or, shall we say, starting point. To calculate frame 8 you should have the result of frame 7; to calculate frame 7 you should have frame 6 calculated and so on down to first frame.
