Can you configure two dhcp server on a same network?

yes, one can configure two dhcp server on a same network. But for doing this, one has to define different scopes in both dhcp server in order to avoid ip address conflict. Eg. one can configure a scope for a lan with network address of 10.0.0.0 as- 10.0.0.10- 10.0.0.100 in one dhcp server. while other scope would be 10.0.0.101-10.0.0.200 . In this way we can have to dhcp servers on a same network. Which ever dhcp server receives the request for the ip address will provide the ip address. IN case for servers, one can use mac bindingin both servers so that they obtain same ip address
