Is it possible to have dynamically scaled/aligned variable fields (like name + surname)?

Hi

I have an ID card template in Illustrator which we fill in with dynamic data.

I have some rows with more than one variable, for example:
[name] [surname]

Is it possible to set up the document so these fields are aligned dynamically depending on the variable content?
Right now, if the name is too long it overlaps the surname box. And if it's too short it creates a wide gap between fields.

Of course, I might join two fields to have something like [name_surname], but it's not always possible as sometimes these fields use different fonts etc.

I was looking around for some solution, but I could not find anything...

thanks, dan
