Exchange 2010 Standard Mailbox Databases
I understand I am limited to 5 Mailbox Databases in Exchange 2010 Standard. If I own a second Exchange standard license, can I setup a second Mailbox server and have more mailbox databases in the same en

Yes. But each server can only have a maximum of 5 databases mounted at a time. If you are standing up a second server to add more databases, you may want to consider the enterprise license so each server will be able to mount all the databases
in the event of a failure (network, software, or hardware).

If you are not going to use Second server for resiliency purpose (and not configuring the DAG) and going to use it as a stand alone server then Yes, else what Hinte said...
