Yes, you can. Add-ons are pro-rated (min.$25).
What relationship status do adults have to have to be on a Couple Membership or Family Membership?
The adults can have any relationship (ie: mother-daughter, friends, spouses, sisters etc.).
But please note that if two friends or siblings go on the Membership, their spouses are not eligible to be added as add-ons.
Can someone else use my Membership card, or is only the person on the card allowed to use it?
