My thesis is too big (540 pages) for one volume impression, so I need to separate my appendices from the main thesis text.
But I want only one pdf file with the two main titles: one for the thesis and one for the appendix page, with the appendix page numbering restart to 0.
Is this possible with memoir class?
Volume 1:
-
A page with Title of the thesis
-
Toc
-
Thesis content (chapter 1 .. n) page 0 .. 450
-
Bibliography
Volume 2:
-
A page with Title : "Appendices to the thesis … "
-
my Appendix A – p 0 … 15
-
my Appendix B – p 15 … 30

In general:
To reset arabic pagenumbering use
\pagenumbering{arabic}
which sets the next page number to 1.To set the pagenumber to 0 use
\setcounter{page}{0}
So for your case try:
I think that starting your second volume with page number 0 will strike the reader as unusual, particularly if the document is printed two-sided and the even numbered pages appear on the right and the odd ones on the left.
