Technically you could, but you're not supposed to:

Proposed Voting Choices:

1. Extend the lifetime of PHP 5.6 yes/no
2. -->If you chose to extend it<---, extend it to
  * year of Active Support + 2 years of Security Support
  * year of Active Support + 1 year of Security Support

> Better make it a three way choice, where you just tally up the two "extend

That would effectively be the same thing as it is now, if I'm understanding
correctly.  I'm fine with either approaches.
