SSRS 2008 do not support single label for two parameters, even you cannot set their spacing between them. SSRS only gives you an option of parameter ordering i.e one after another but not for their alignment.

For your problem i can suggest following solutions:

1) You can use "Period From(MM/YYYYY):" label for first parameter and populate it with month values. Now for second parameter use space " " as a label for second parameter and populate it with year values. (NOTE: You cannot change the spacing between the parameters)

2) You can use single label for single parameter with values populating from a query in "MM/YYYY" format. You can use today's date as base for creating multiple month-year combinations.
