You certainly can. As others have noted, the actual operating frequencies somewhat dictate the choice of RF hardware required. If you are adding a new system to an existing system and can request an approximate frequency from your coordinator - so much the better. You may be able to obtain spacings that will allow inexpensive hardware to meet your needs. At commercial sites this is often done with expensive receiver mulitcouplers, window filters and transmitter combiners, however, for a simple two repeater system you may be able to accomplish the task with Motorola T1500 series parts. Quoting from the Motorola T1500 documentation: "For systems requiring more than two inputs to a common antenna, T1500A series Motorola cavity filters may be converted to a multiplexer configuration with three optional intercabling kits." I currently have a 460 range and a 440 range repeater both running on a single antenna with outstanding results using the T1500 series filters in a configuration I call "quadplexer" Your use of Yahoo!
