Not on the basic (free) plan. Five cameras is the maximum, and it's not per base station, but per account.

You have two options: either upgrade to a paid plan (and connect your sixth camera to the existing base station) or buy a second base station and add your sixth camera to the second base station on a new account. You could keep both accounts on the basic plan though, so no subscription fee necessary. Problem is though that as far as I know you can't buy a base station without at least one camera. Also, it's more of a hassle to flip-flop between two accounts, since you'll have to manually enter the user ID and password every time you switch.
