running servers parallel

I'm going to undertake a hardware refresh soon and I was wondering if it is possible to run two machines (X and Y) with the same hostname (but different IP addresses) on the same network? Server X is the original server and has an entry in DNS. Server Y is the new server and won't have an entry in DNS until server X is taken offline.
