If you mean you want to tab horizontally instead of vertically you can add a section for each row of fields on your form (CRM tabs through an entire section before moving into the next). If you simply remove the heading from all but the first section, from the front end it will look exactly the same, however you will tab across the page instead of down.

Hope that helps!
