YES..... but a few things... you need a cat 5 cable (any radio shack) but the problem lies in the decoder. You need to split the signal AFTER the reciever, and then both tv's are watching the same thing... kinda lame... you need a second reciever

What ever you do, do NOT use a standard TV splitter between the dish and receiver to run extra receivers. You will destroy the dish. Special switches are made to do that. Some moron living next to my son tried to tap off his dish coax and fried his LNB.
I have a combiner (switch) on my super dish that combines 3 incoming satellites, and then has 4 outputs for hooking to seperate receivers in different rooms. If you don't understand how these gizmo's work, you are better off having a pro do it.

as the previous answer stated, you can split AFTER the reciever, but a CAT 5 cable if for Ethernet and computer connections, NOT cable. you need RG-6, Coaxial cable.
