Ok, we just got our new XBOX 360, YAY. The game, Call of Duty 2 allows for cooperative play. I never thought I would like this game but I do, thus here is my question.
Is there some way, instead of using split screen, to have two separate monitors, with full screen and two different people playing on each?

Only way is to have more than one 360 and more than one TV/monitor.

Dude, it took me until now to get ONE XBox 360, and I ain’t goin’ through that again. I already have two TVs.
Now, if I find out if I can use the two with one XBox, all will be groovy.

I think you are sadly destined for non-grooviness. The 360 has only one video-out. It’s possible, I suppose, that some clever person will devise a video splitter that takes the split-screen signal and puts half of it on each of the TVs, but you’d get an asstastic image (pixel-doubled either horizontally or vertically).
