Sure.

When you mix two or more metals together you get what's called an alloy, and alloys are often stronger, or in some other way better than their separate parts.

Absolutely pure gold for instance is so soft that it can hardly be used even for jewelry, so it's mixed with a tiny bit of some other metal to make it stronger.

Stainless steel is mainly iron, chrome and nickel.
