Can you plug more than 1 handset in wireless home phone

I was thinking of replacing my home phone with the wireless  home phone but currently have to handsets. One is in my basement office and one is upstairs - can I still connect both?

    The wireless phone phone from my experience will support two wired phones at least.  If you connect the wireless home phone to your house wiring, be sure to disconnect your house wiring from the outside wire that comes to your home from the phone company, or it will cause problems eventually. A cordless phone with one base station and multiple handsets counts as one phone. If you go the cordless phone route, make sure to use a DECT 6.0 phone or it will probably interfere with your wifi.
