Yes. An example would be carbon-12. It has 6 protons and 6 neutrons.
Atoms having the same number of protons and neutrons make up the same element.
Isotopes of the same element have the same number of protons and electrons, but varied numbers of neutrons.
Isotopes are atoms of the same element with the same number of protons but different numbers of neutrons. An example is carbon-12 and carbon-14, which both have six protons but differ in the number of neutrons they possess.
The mass number of an isotope tells you the total number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus of that atom. It is used to distinguish different isotopes of an element, as isotopes of the same element have the same number of protons but different numbers of neutrons.
All isotopes of an element have the same number of protons, otherwise they would not be the same element. What varies is the number of neutrons, they can be more or less than in the stable isotope(s) of the element.

Atoms of the same element usually have the same number of protons but differ slightly in the number of neutrons. The number of neutrons are usually about the number of protons so it can be estimated as so. For example, there are two relatively common isotopes of sodium: sodium 22 and sodium 23, where the number is the total number of protons and neutrons. Sodium 22 has 11 neutrons and sodium 23 has 12 neutrons but the sodium atom has 11 protons. For further information, look up isotopes.
Atoms of the same element cannot have different numbers of protons. Different numbers of protons mean different elements. An atom with the a different number of neutrons is called an isotope.

An element is defined by the number of protons, so this cannot vary. Isotopes of a particular element are different in the number of neutrons within the atoms. These isotopes are said to be comparatively "lighter" or "heavier" than other isotopes based on the total of protons and neutrons (atomic mass).
All isotopes of an element have the same number of protons, otherwise they would not be the same element. What varies is the number of neutrons, they can be more or less than in the stable isotope(s) of the element.
No, the number of protons determines the element. Each element has a unique number of protons in its nucleus, which is what defines its identity. If two elements had the same number of protons, they would be the same element.
