Yes its OK. But you need a large enough cage. What size cage do you have yours in now?

you may house them together as long as it not 2 males together and remember if you house a male and female together that you have to worry about them breeding whenever and all the extra stess involved with keeping beardies in the same enclosure. Ex... both are feeding, one isn't being too dominate to the other, fighting. thats just a few.

The minimum cage size for one adult bearded dragon is a 50 gallon tank. The measurements of a 50 gallon is 3 ft. long, 1 1/2 ft. wide and 1 1/2 ft. tall. I would recommend a cage of 5 ft. long, 2-3 ft. wide and 2 ft. tall for two dragons... or at least something ABOUT that size. 75-100 gallons would be best. Also, as it's been said, don't ever house two males together and if you house a male and a female, you'll have to worry about the stress levels. All in all, I would say if you have a female that your best bet would be to get another female. Dragons don't NEED other dragons to thrive but some do like companionship of other dragons... some don't. Let us know what you decide to do. Good luck!
