You can split by position like this

 {% set bar = "aabbcc"|split('', 2) %}
 {# bar contains ['aa', 'bb', 'cc'] #}

As described in the doc

So you can do something like: 

{% set bar = "1203"|split('', 2) %}
{# bar contains ['12', '03'] #}

now let's do:

{{ bar[0]~":"~bar[1] }}

this will output:

12:03

Better if you build a macro or a TWIG extension with the function

Hope this help
