Yes you can!  Here are two forms, form1 and form2, with the different 
text inputs:

<form name="form1" action="index.cfm" method="post">
<input name="var1" type="text" value="value for form1" />
<button name="frm1Button" type="submit">Launch form 1</button>
</form>
<hr />
<form name="form2" action="index.cfm" method="post">
<input name="var1" type="text" value="value for form2" />
<input type="hidden" name="onlyForm2" value="any value" />
<button name="frm2Button" type="submit">Launch form 2</button>
</form>
<cfdump var="#form#" />

Even though both forms have a text input with the same name of VAR1, 
when you submit a form, only the value for that form's VAR1 is submitted.

You can have different form elements too, like form2 has a hidden 
variable called "onlyForm2".
