Can I insert 2 analytics code in the same website.

The old analytic code is not tracking the organic visitors so wanna insert another analytic code from different account and check.

No you couldn't. This will misguide Google to track actual user behavior.

I think no, basically you or google can't get exact data if we do that.

You can only use one Google Analytics code, but you can share your access with some other account. If you want to test, then simply replace the code to see if your original account is the problem.

Just think you have 2 boat at a same time to cross a river. You will take only one boat right?
Same like that if you put 2 analytics. Google will be confused which one should accept.
Better you remove one temporarily and use other one for test.

Yes, you can use a different account to add Google analytics code to the same website but first, you have to remove the old tracking code from the website and use a new tracking code from a different account.
