Is it possible to have different website project solutions with different file structures to be deployed on the same Sitecore instance?

If so what changes need to be done in Sitecore setup?

You can do this so long as the solutions are using different namespaces and various files are named differently. Make sure references, etc. are the same so there are no conflicts.

Yes, you can do it. That is what layered architecture and Helix & Habitat about.

Start by watching 20 min video to catch the basic ideas about layering.

It is totally fine to deploy different solutions/sites to the same physical Sitecore instance as long as each project plays by rules:

  • Does not override basic templates
  • Does not override basic system behaviors
