Do you mean IPAdress and portnumber over tcp?

yes , we can connect multiple clients to a server through same port. At the Server we can specify a threshold number of connections to a socket(welcome Socket). once connected the client will carry operations through another port assigned by welcome socket.

Please see this design sketch I provided in my past answer to the similar question: Multple clients from same port Number[^].

You can use TCP networking on different level. Please see my overview of them in my past answers:
how i can send byte[] to other pc[^],
Communication b/w two Windows applications on LAN.[^].
