Try the Preview workspace, select both images. Its not really what you are asking but its the closest Bridge comes.

There are two ways to do this. First select the two images and then from the View menu select "Review Images." If you press your up and down facing arrow keys you can alternate between the two.

You can get out of this view pressing the Esc key.

Alternatively...

One of the things that Bridge has when first opened is (to me) a very stupid interface/layout. They stick the Preview window in small corner location where it can show a tad more than the thumbnails.

The good news is that you can move these panels around and create a more functional workspace and then save that so that you can come back to that workspace, or any other that you create, at any time.

While this is dated, it does show how to move the Panels around and create a functional workspace. To do what you want, you need to expand Bridge's window to take over your whole screen and then Control/Command-click the two images you want to compare and they will appear side-by-side. You can click more than two but as you add the images, they will start to be smaller and smaller to make room for all of the selected images.

You can learn how to move Panels in this (now dated) article I wrote some time back. The mechanics of moving Panels is not dated and works the same:
