Um... What are you asking here? If you can store more than one value in a variable? 

If it's an array, yes, you can. Java doesn't care where the information you store in variables comes from. Whether you read it from a file, get it from the user, or put it directly into the program doesn't matter.

For example:

int

Um... Yes. Again, Java doesn't care where the data is coming from. To the JRE, there is absolutely no difference between data you program into your source code, get from the user, read from a file, etc.

System.out.println(varName[2]); 

will output the third element of the array varName, regardless of how the value got put in that location.
