You probably can but you probably shouldn't.
This sounds like exactly the wrong reason to use profiles.
If you have 2 web.xmls, you probably are mixing deployment with development.
Either move all of the code to a new maven project that produces a jar
that is a dependency to 2 projects that have web.xml files and not much else
or
move the stuff out of the web.xml and put it where it belongs in the
environment using JNDI or some other way to communicate environment info
to your code.
Maven has been used to build thousands of web apps so it is unlikely
that you have come up with a new and novel way to do it.
These is a standard way (sometimes several) to solve whatever it is that
you want to do.
You need to describe what you are actually trying to accomplish before
anyone can give you an answer about how.
In addition to responding to Wayne's direct question, you should provide
some more background.

Hi.
I'd like know, if using profiles, I can build a web project using different
web.xml files, in other words, one of the profile will use the web.xml 1,
and the other profile will use the web.xml 2.
Best Regards!
