Sealing a 2pc A mold for lrtm

Just curious if a 2 pc A mold could be sealed for lrtm?  I have a part that has a "lock" in it and would need it to be a multi piece mold.  Can it still be sealed?  We are currently hand laying them but looking into lrtm.  I've heard of some people making multi piece A molds and somehow sealing them where they join.  Thanks in advance!

Thanks! I’m assuming the seal channel needs to be inside of the flange towards the part where it bolts together so it can seal the seam?
