2 Answers
yes there can be , it may so be that the 2 stanzas for instance follow 1 rhyme scheme or it also might be that the 1st stanza follows a different rhyme scheme while 2nd one follows another

Yes. If I am understanding you correctly, this actually happens all the time.
Explanation:
A Rhyme Scheme is a pattern in the ending sounds of the lines of a poem.
Rhyme Schemes are most commonly classified using letters to represent the different rhymes. A simple example would be:
A
B
A
B
A poem in this format might look something like:
Roses are red
Violets are blue
I have a head
And so do you
You can think of a Stanza as a paragraph for poems. It's simply a group of lines. In Free Verse poems, the number of lines per Stanza doesn't really matter. However, if you are using a Rhyme Scheme, you will want to keep the number of lines per Stanza consistent.
But none of this answers your question. Now that the base information has been laid out, I can get to what you really what to know.
The very same ABAB example from above can be continued into a second stanza by simply adding CDCD. For example:
Roses are red
Violets are blue
I have a head
And so do you
This is an example
Of how we can write
I hope it is ample
To help with your plight
