To answer questions like the one in the subject, check the XML 
Recommendation, available at
        http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-xml

The EBNF descripton of a document says:
        [1]   document  ::=  prolog element Misc*
Prolog is defined as
        [22]   prolog ::=  XMLDecl? Misc* (doctypedecl Misc*)?
And Misc is defined as
        [27]    Misc  ::=   Comment | PI | S

So: A prolog, which comes before the document element, _can_ contain one 
or more misc's, each of which _can_ be a Processing Instruction (PI).
