Please give an example. Every adjacent pair along the line? What about the lines that are only one cell long? Or do you mean that all the digits on the line to one side sum to 2N and all the digits to the other side sum to N^2?

the latter (all of the digits) - so for a one cell line the central digit could be 1,2,3 and the ends could be 1,2 or 4,4 or 6,9
