Yes. You can have multiple partitions and OSes on different parts. My working drive I use for jobs has 13 partitions on it. Installers from 10.5.8 through to 10.12.1, then bootable drives in various flavours. Then a “spare” part for other things. (updates, image files etc). As a note, only some machine will boot certain systems. But those two should be fine.
