I want to fit two wall lights in my lounge.

Can I do this with one 20A junction box using the supply feeding the existing ceiling rose.

Just so I'm clear on this, the finished work will have 5 cables into 1 20A junction box (1 Feed, 2 Lights, 2 Switches).

Inside the box there will be 3 Live to the same terminal (1 Feed, 2 Switches), 4 Live to the same terminal (2 Switches, 2 Lights) and 3 Neutral to the same terminal (1 Feed, 2 Lights).

Each CPC from the 5 cables will go to the same earth terminal.

You really should think a little bit more about what each switch will do if you wire it like this.....
 
It's 'kind of' 2way :!:

You need a 6 terminal Joint Box, and should have 1 spare terminal when finished!
