That's something you also could do in SE3 that IMO is very much missed.
I believe it does this now (well, you can't place them but if you have a fleet in a sector, then send a fleet from another direction, they will be on differen't edges of the combat area (this happened to me Last night when I declared war on a race where my ships were in the same sector. The next turn I moved a ship in to reenforce my units. My fleet was on the far right of the map and the ship I brought in was on the far left.
