Will I write two .rtp files for two different molecules ? or Will I
write one rtp file that includes all parameters of these two molecules

and .top ) ?
Read the manual, section 5.6.1.

Thanks in advance

You're stuck either writing an .rtp entry for use with pdb2gmx, or
writing the .itp yourself.

This will probably have to be done by hand if you want to use
OPLS-AA. Depending on the complexity of your molecule, you may be
able to use an .rtp entry, but I would suggest processing a single
molecule of this type with pdb2gmx to create a .top for that
molecule (which can be converted to a .itp for later use).<<
