Yes, you can do so. There's no problem at all. Your flight back may have a different airline (even if the airline is not member of the same airline alliance than the airline of your outgoing flight) and/or a different itinerary and /or a different destination.
However, in most (not all) cases, a roundtrip with the same airlines is cheaper than two separate one-way flights.
In several cases, traveling with two different airlines can be necessary (e.g. The airlines do not offer daily flights) or cheaper ( e.g. A budget flight is available on only one leg) than traveling with the same airlines.

There's absolutely no problem booking two one-way flights, but generally two one-way tickets can cost more than one round-trip ticket. If for some reason you have to or want to, it's perfectly fine to do so.
I used to do that a lot, but the airlines have set their prices to encourage you to fly round trip, quite often the return trip will be heavily discounted down from the one way price. Really the only reason to ever do this is prices
I'm sure someone has. I haven't.
Sure you can do it
But it would be much more expensive then a round trip
Yes You can do it. You can compare the tickets prices of various airlines via ixigo.com and choose the ones that suit your budget and compulsion. It is recommended that you make your bookings at least 30-45 days prior to the itinerary date.
- Booking trip with two different airlines vs same airline? Any differences? One over the other? I'm deciding on which flight i should take to Honolulu. The cheaper flights seem to have two different airlines. For example, flight to LA on American airlines, then from LA to Honolulu with Alaska. Compared to sticking with one airline. Any bad experiences with having two separate airlines? Is it safer to stay with one airline as in luggage safety?
- I'm taking my first flight ever and it's with Alaska airlines. I don't have a suitcase, so I'm bringing a large duffel bag. Is this okay? I would rather not be charged extra! The bag is a little longer than a normal suitcase but a lot thinner
- I noticed a complete round trip airline ticket is cheaper than one way? I see one way tickets for $300 while round trips are $225. I'm not certain when I'd return, so would there be some kind of penalty for buying the cheaper round top ticket. Then after I fly there, cancel my return trip. And just by a ticket when I decide to return?
- I bought a nonrefundable ticket and couldn't fly because of a panic attack that happened at the airport. Can I still get credit/money back? I was told they would charge me $200 to change each ticket--which is about how much the tickets cost me. Which is preposterous. Other airlines charge $20-$40 to do this in many cases.
