Oh yeah, you can have hundreds, even thousands of databases on a single SQL Server. The only limitations depend on how much disk space you have and how powerful the server is. Other performance considerations depend on how you design the databases, what kind of disk system you have, and how many users access the server. We'll need more details about your setup before we can answer any other questions though.
