Hmmm – why is his insurance more expensive? Has he had an accident? It’s your no claims on the line….
But in answer to your question – with direct line you can do what you suggest. Though to be clear; the main driver of a particular car should have the insurance with additional drivers as “Named.” If he has an accident and the insurance company query it – then they might be in a position where they do not have to pay up.
Basically – dfon’t do it. Especially not for an Ex.

You can insure as many vehicles as you like, either all with the same company on different policies, or with different companies.
However, if you register a car in your ex’s name & insure it, you’ll be completely liable for any fines, penalties, endorsements, etc – it sounds to me like he’s trying to make a mug out of you.

This is your ex?
Do you want the problems of speeding tickets from cameras showing up in your mail box. Do you want to pay for the ex’s parking tickets?
Please don’t!
What if he does a hit and run then disappears on you, how are you going to handle the knock on the door and going to jail?
Please don’t set yourself up like this.

The key word here is EX. Let him get his own insurance. (But to answer your question…yes, you can insure more than one vehicle on the same policy.)

don’t put your ex’s car in you name and insure it. that is a huge liability
