Need Layout same size as Model

I've been working on a site layout in AutoCAD that includes 7 buildings. Each building is set up as an external reference (Xref) so the layout updates automatically as we add new assets like welders, presses, and other equipment.
I'm now starting a project to map out all the nitrogen lines on the site. I'd like to keep the nitrogen lines in the same drawing (to maintain 1:1 accuracy) but on a separate tab — not in paper space and not just as a toggleable layer. I want a clean, dedicated space for the nitrogen layout that still updates automatically as building references are updated.
Is there a way to create a separate model-space-style layout (not paper space) that references the existing site model, but allows me to add and manage the nitrogen lines separately — ideally in a way that stays synced with any updates to the main Xrefs?
I hope this makes sense, any help is appreciated.
