Absolutely. The best way to get started is to look up some sort of merger model template online, these aren't hard to find. Learn how to use it, and then plug in your two companies' financials from their 10k

IPO models are extremely simple (think about it, only change is # of shares, price, maybe dividend) merger models are the more complex ones.

Will also say - they will never ask you to model in an interview, usually just basic accounting and financial questions and it's expected that you know nothing coming into IB. Learning to model is good but it 100% won't get you a job, make sure you spend just as much or more time networking.
