yes. but the roots will compete for water and nutes, and the leaves will compete for light.
how many plants are you proposing?

thats gonna be too tight. just get two pots. plastic ones are good and cheap. or white plastic buckets. its good to have the separated for mobility any way.

just being able to position them for the best light is important. 2 buckets is just more versatile/practical.
