In theory if they are the same species, YES

Having not keep Indian Stars myself i am unsure as to the aggression of male stars so i would keep a careful watch.

I believe Indian Stars males are not agressive towards each other. Can any experienced Stars keeper confirm that please?

Males are not generaly aggresive with each other, however i have witnessed some male/male mounting., but nothing nasty.
