I'm new to Robot Framework. Can someone help me to find if it's possible to have to a test Setup and a Teardown for each test case in test suite containing around 20 test cases.

Can someone explain this with an example?

have you read the robot framework user guide? It contains an explanation of how to use test setup and teardown, and includes examples. – Bryan Oakley

Here's an example. A testsuite containing teardown. You can miss the teardown from each testcase if you want to execute it at last. Please read the corresponding documentation:

http://robotframework.org/robotframework/latest/RobotFrameworkUserGuide.html#test-setup-and-teardown

*** Settings ***
Test Setup       Open Application    App A
Test Teardown    Close Application

*** Test Cases ***
Default values
    [Documentation]    Setup and teardown from setting table
    Do Something

Overridden setup
    [Documentation]    Own setup, teardown from setting table
    [Setup]    Open Application    App B
    Do Something

No teardown
    [Documentation]    Default setup, no teardown at all
