If both paints are the same base (IE latex is a water base, enamel is an oil base, etc.), they can be mixed. However, that doesn't mean it is a good idea. Paints may contain chemicals that don't react well with one another and produce unwanted finish effects or discoloration. Polyurethane is NOT a paint! It is a seal that is designed to protect a paint or stain finish. There are specially designed poly paints, but it is not advisable to try to homebrew one. There are also poly stains if that is what you are looking for.
To increase the life of your painted finish, always clean the surface well prior to finishing. Use a good latex primer and allow it to dry thoroughly. Use two layers of paint and allow thorough drying between layers. A seal is usually not necessary on wood trim (exterior paint is designed to seal the wood) unless staining the wood. Bright white paint is going to be hard to keep intact from the wear and tear of outdoor conditions. Make sure to keep the surface clean to minimize discoloration!
