I guess you would reply that you ARE using prototypes, but I doubt you are using strict and warnings. If you were then you would get "Request::aaa() called too early to check prototype".
The @ prototype is pretty useless. It accepts a list (not just an array), a single scalar (since that is a single entry list), and even nothing, since an empty list is still a valid list.
Yes you need to use references for this:
use warnings;
use strict;

sub Request::aaa(\@\@);

#main.pl
my @a1 = qw (the quick brown fox);
my @a2 = qw (theres more than one way);

Request::aaa(@a1, @a2);

package Request;

sub aaa(\@\@)
{
   my @array1 = @{shift()};
   my @array2 = @{shift()};
   
}

1;

Notice how the prototype has to be pre-defined, like with C/C++. Very few people like or understand prototypes, so it might be better to use:
use warnings;
use strict;

#main.pl
my @a1 = qw (the quick brown fox);
my @a2 = qw (theres more than one way);

Request::aaa(\@a1, \@a2);

package Request;

sub aaa
{
   my @array1 = @{shift()};
   my @array2 = @{shift()};
   
}

1;

Here the caller has to know that a reference is being passed - that's the \ in front of the array (\@a1, \@a2)
