Yes, you can. The method used will depend on what pattern you are working and how much you need to add.

If it is vertical stripes, it is quite easy to just add another stripe. If it is granny squares, just add more squares where you need the extra width. If it is horizontal stripes, just turn the whole thing round and made it vertical stripes, then add more stripes.

If your blanket is being worked horizontally in one piece, then you might create a second strip in the same pattern, then join the two strips. You can do this either when you have completed the first strip, or at the point you are now. If you do the latter, you would then continue the pattern, going into both sections. I have done this with a ripple afghan, but I was not far into it at the time. The assembly of the two strips must be done carefully if you don't want it to show.
