Have you tried to use itemWidth parameter?

Please take look at

http://jsfiddle.net/B9L2b/1266/

 legend: {
    width: 200,
    itemWidth: 100
},

http://api.highcharts.com/highcharts#legend.itemWidth

EDIT:

http://jsbin.com/oyicuc/31/

width:600,
        itemWidth:300,
        itemStyle: {
          width:280
        }

Maybe you could use the "labelFormater" of the legend.

Then you could create a table and arrange the legend text as you wnat.

Have a look at the example on the documentation page.

function renderElements() {
      if (this.legend) {
       this.legend.destroy();
      }
      //distance between 2 elements
      let itemDistance = this.legend.options.itemDistance;
      //the biggest element
      let maxItemWidth = this.legend.maxItemWidth;
      //make the width of the legend in the size of 2 largest elements + 
      //distance  
      let nextLegendWidth = (maxItemWidth * 2) + itemDistance;
      //container width
      let boxWidth = this.plotBox.width;
      //if the length of the 2 largest elements + the distance between them 
      //is less than the width of           container, we make 1 row, else 
      //set legend width 2 max elements + distance between
    if (boxWidth < nextLegendWidth) {
     this.legend.options.width = maxItemWidth;
    } else {
     this.legend.options.width = nextLegendWidth;
  }

  this.render()   
}

chart: {
    events: {
      load: renderElements,
      redraw: renderElements
  }
}
