Just some thoughts......

Does the type of print need to be "compliant" to a standard e.g. dye sub not inkjet???

As for templates, if you have a compatible Epson printer their Epson Print Layout is IMO superb for straightforward layouts
 
When you normally print is there an option for Index Print, rather than full size?
If so select the 4 photos you want and set it to Index, you should get the option of how many Rows and Columns you want, in your case you would set them both to 2
If you want 4 copies of the same photo simply select the 1 photo and change the copies setting to 4
You then set the paper size to 6*4 or 4*6, you may have to select rotate to fit,
It all depends on your printer driver, some are easier to use than others.

I did our passport photos at home using my Nikon D810 with a 24-70mm lens on a tripod. Set the camera up about 5ft away and lined up the shot for head and shoulders in colour, subject
against a plain wall. then edit it to passport size to meet requirement. Printed out on Ilford Galarie smooth gloss paper. that was accepted. The annoying thing is I sent it in colour and on the passport it was monchrome (black and white). Doing it this way on can make as many copies as one wants

A good point.....IIRC when I renewed my passport I used one of those photo booths and the photos are in colour but more importantly (this is the UK) the pictures had a code to be used online and unlike older passports there is no physical photo stuck into it. The photos are, colour and B&W are digitally printed.

it needs to be printed by a high quality printer (i use fuji centre) i have tried print at home
but the colours dont last very long plus ink and stoppages cause too many problems
 
As for printer I have a Epson XP-950 which has now been updated. what I don't use is compatible ink cartridges they I find clog up the printer jets

I’m not sure exactly what you need and I don’t know what “Fuji centre“ is BUT I think many online photo printing service do that from a single print. In UK Boots for example do 4-up on 6x4 paper online. They call them “stickers” so maybe they are sticky backed and I see they have a white border between the photos so may not be exactly what you want. I think just ask your “Fuji centre” or try them online if that’s what they are.

Assuming then you are on Mac, why not install Parallels so that you can run Windows software if this app does exactly what you want? Just a thought, as it's probably not the last time you'll need to use a Windows-only app.

Just a quick fyi.... I have just renewed my passport, and the .gov website has a whole new bunch of requirements. IE full body shot (waist up). They will crop it. You now also get some sort of scale as to how likely the photos will succeed. I took two, and one passed on the upload.
