Yes. But the real question is, what exactly is the purpose if this.


If you just want a secondary email address, you can create an Alias on your current iCloud account and any email sent to the alias will arrive at your regular iCloud email inbox.

click here ➜ Add and manage email aliases for iCloud Mail on iCloud.com - Apple Support


If you want an entirely independent iCloud email account you can add one in Settings ➜ Mail ➜ Accounts ➜ Add Account. This will provide an additional email account, and iCloud account with storage and all other iCloud features. Note however, that storage cannot be merged, and you will only have access to email on the iPhone.


If you want to use the account for purchases in the iTunes and App Stores, you will need to sign out of the existing one and log in with the new one and again, purchases cannot be merged, but they can be shared.


What are you trying to accomplish exactly?
