Make a copy of whatever it is you want to see and just throw it off to the side somewhere. Then bring up an additional viewport in paperspace to show that view.

In paperspce viewport, use the command "dview>>twist" and set view to whatever rotation you'd like. You can also create a named UCS with desired rotation, and restore that UCS in the viewport (as well as the companion "plan" command to set view to the UCS.

Hi,
 
You can use the command:
 
Mvsetup
   Align
      Rotate View [ASKED FOR BASEPOINT AROUND WHICH TO ROTATE VIEW
                           - INDICATE ANY POINT IN THE VIEWPORT]
         Specify angle = 90 degrees
 
With this method you do not have to do anthing with your model space,  only find that it affects my right click commands on mouse but can be corrected with typing in "PICKFIRST" and set it to "1"
 
Good luck!!!
