You mean USE more than one database? Sure. Just create different sql
module instances: http://wiki.freeradius.org/Rlm_sql#wiki-Instances
Each instance can connect to a different database or schema.

You need to realize the consequences though. For example:
- where will you store accounting? is it on db1 or db2? or both?
- both database might have different information for the same user
(e.g. different password), thus making the result unpredictable
The usual case for different instances is if you use them for
different purposes (e.g. one to store user info, the other to store
accounting) or for different realms (e.g. all user @domain1 will read
data from db1, while all user @domain1 will read data from db2).
