Because the Text Direction button for tables can't rotate the text 180 degrees, you'll have to set up the table as 1 row by 2 columns, and then rotate the text in the left cell 90 degrees clockwise and the text in the right cell 90 degrees counterclockwise.

To position the merge fields, use table cells instead of text boxes.
