you can do that, but I think only at cell-level, that is your document
would look something like this:

CreateDocument[Map[
  ExpressionCell[#,"Output",PageBreakBelow->True]&,
  {expr1,expr2,...,exprn}
]]

you might need to play with it to get exactly what you want, e.g. put a
PageBreak only after every second plot etc...
