How can you spread a large texture over multiple blocks

I'm trying to find out if it is possible to make a texture where only a section of it is displayed on each block and spreads across multiple blocks. Like a 32 x 32 texture where only a 16 x 16 part of it is displayed on each block laid in a 2 x 2 pattern and each block has a different section that shows up as one whole texture across all 4 blocks. Is that possible or no???

I think you have to make one texture for every block, for example: chest_top_left, chest_top_right e.c.

So or I can't help you or it is impossible to do.

Create different blocks each one with the texture for its respective position like block_topleft, block_topright, block_downright, block_downleft, then create a fifth block that will turn on in each of these blocks depending on its position. On placing block, it will turn from block to block_downleft for example by destroying itself and placing this other block, then it will verify the blocks nearby it and destroy itself and place the corresponding block that will complete the texture in its place.
