Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think you can.  You'd need to
go with 7 data, 2 stop.  The 8th data bit "robs" the space of the 2nd stop
bit (and a parity bit, if IIRC).  That's why you see a lot of 7,E,1 and
7,O,1, but rarely [never] 7,O,2 or 8,E,1.

But someone please trample me if I'm not remembering clearly ;-)
