I don't think that's possible if you're using tiles. Somewhere, some 
label will be close to a tile boundary and be truncated or omitted.

If you find a mapping engine that can place labels like that (drawing 
half of a label on tile A when the point is on tile B) I would be 
interested to hear about it.
