Is it possible to catch a second strain of the "Common Cold" while still suffering from a first?

Of course. The "common cold" is a collective name for ~200 viruses. A co-infection involving more than one virus is not uncommon.

For some viruses this actually plays an important part in their evolution. For instance RNA viruses can exchange genetic material in a process called recombination.
