You could probably override the default UI panel handling, but doing so would also probably cause things to break in combat, since some UI panels (like the spellbook) are secure.
Aside from the obvious and extremely simple solutions of increasing the screen resolution or reducing the UI scale, another solution would be to remove one or both of the windows in question from the list of frames to be managed by the Blizzard panel handling system, but then you would also need to write more code to manage their positions yourself (so they didn't overlap each other, for example). Doesn't seem worthwhile.
