Can you sue a family and company in the same civil plaintiff complaint for the same incident?

Question Details: The incident in question is as follows: a pool company knew this particular board/pool combo could cause head injury but did nothing to ban the combination or make owners aware (this is indisputable, a study was done). A minor was injured in a neighbors pool, the combination mentioned above, rendering him a quadriplegic. Is it possible to sue both the family owning the pool AND the pool company in the SAME plaintiff complaint, as long as the suit is for the same thing (in this case, negligence to both the family and company)?
