Yes, it is possible to use two (or even more than two) routers on the same home network. The benefits of a two-router network include: Improved wireless reach (signal range): Adding a second wireless router to an existing Wi-Fi network can extend its reach to accommodate far away devices.

Can I boost my Wi-Fi with a second router?
