Yes you can purchase more key codes though it won't be much of a savings:

If you have the original setup disk for the other computers, it might be
less expensive to purchase upgrade versions of XP. If these are retail
disks, you can actually do a clean install, just insert the previous
operating system CD when asked during setup. If these are OEM disks or
recovery CDs, then the OS would actually have to be installed before
installing XP on those machines.

Yes, you can buy other licenses, but they will cost about the same (maybe
more) than a XP Upgrade from a discount computer store.
