No, you can know just the names of files in which are compressed and
stored in that part of .rar (or .r0) and not all the files. The
compressing in rar is done letter by letter.

It's unnecessary to use RAR or ARJ for splitting alone since just
binary splitting the files will work fine, and they can be
reassemblied with cat or copy
