In most home renovations there is ample room on a branch circuit to add another outlet. Very seldom does an electrician, when wiring a home, load the circuit up to maximum outlet that the electrical code will permit. Now the thing that has to be kept in mind is what is the load on the circuit now. The second thing to keep in mind is how much is the new receptacle outlet's load going to be. A home branch circuit is protected by a 15 amp breaker, so that is the maximum amperage load you are able to apply to the circuit without the circuit tripping. If you are able to stay within this parameter you should be able to add another receptacle outlet to the existing circuit.
