An -l2title- for the entire graph can be given as an option to -by()-. Note that this will be to the left of the -ytitle- so you may want to swap the text between the two, e.g.

. sysuse auto
. scatter price mpg , by(fore, l2title(Price)) ytitle(US Dollar, si(small))

You can also just give two lines to the ytitle, e.g.

. scatter price mpg , by(fore) ytitle("Price" "US Dollar")

Ricardo,

Though not identical to something like:

. sysuse auto
. scatter price mpg , by(fore) ytitle(Price) l2title(US Dollar)

drawing each graph separately and then combining them is close:

. scatter price mpg if for == 1, subtitle("Domestic", box bex) ///
 l2title(Price) ytitle(US Dollars) saving(graph1, replace) nodraw

. scatter price mpg if for == 1, subtitle("Foreign", box bex) ///
 ytitle("")  ylabel(,  noticks nolabels) saving(graph2, replace) nodraw

. graph combine "graph1.gph" "graph2.gph", ycommon xcommon
