Yes if you watch stories like Star Wars of Game of Thrones, there is multiple main characters. Maybe most of the characters are important to the overall intrigue. In a more classic way you could use a list of kind of people to structure your story : - protagonist aka main(s) character. Can be a hero or an anti-hero - deuteragonist (can be a sidekick or a main character as well) - mentor - nemesis / antagonist (the worst ennemy of the hero) - love interest - narrator (one character can tell your story) - secondary and tertiary characters that will be less developped but still useful at some point. Nothing force you to use this as it is, but it worked well for many novels.
