Here's one way, one step at a time:

>>> r1 = np.concatenate([v1, v2])
>>> r1
array([1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6])
>>> r2 = np.concatenate([v3, v4])
>>> r2
array([ 7,  8,  9, 10, 11, 12])
>>> m = np.array([r1, r2])
>>> m
array([[ 1,  2,  3,  4,  5,  6],
        [ 7,  8,  9, 10, 11, 12]])
>>> m.transpose()
array([[ 1,  7],
        [ 2,  8],
        [ 3,  9],
        [ 4, 10],
        [ 5, 11],
        [ 6, 12]])
