Do you mean the same web site on two different servers?  I assume that
is what you mean.

Yes, it is possible, however, DNS is probably not the best way to
accomplish this redundancy.  Look at a Cluster Solution of some type
(check for packages available for your particular OS), or a Server Load
Balancer such as Radware, Foundry, Alteon, F5 BigIP, etc...
