Yes. You can put two resistors in series. So in your case, you solder one leg of one to the leg of the other. Here is a picture: http://www.cooperbills.com/Projects/MXRevolution/pics/2resistors.jpg (http://www.cooperbills.com/Projects/MXRevolution/pics/2resistors.jpg)

Sometimes it's easiest to make a "teepee" to put them in the board.
