      Yup, you can.
      You can have your desktop stretched over the two monitors or have the secondary monitor display mirror the primary monitor.
      If your video card is fairly recent (4/5 years, probably even more), it will be able to handle different resolutions and refresh rates; of course, when mirroring you'll have to keep in mind that you're working with different resolutions, but it can be done.
      Setting up it's pretty easy, at startup Windows should recognize a multimonitor setup and will automatically set the two as mirrors; a little tweak on your card drivers and you'll be able to do whatever you want.
