Can a switch port or a router port be a part of or be configured in the two or more Etherchannel groups separately?
Is this a recommended industry practice commonly used in enterprise or SP or DC networks?

Yes, Switch port can use for L2 ether channel & router ports also can use for L2/L3 ether channel.
You didn’t get my question,
I am asking that, for example if we have got a switch with ports Fa 0/1 , Fa 0/2 and Fa 0/3.
Can we create a L2 Etherchannel group 1 with Fa 0/1 and Fa 0/2 ports and one more L2 Etherchannel group 2 with Fa 0/1 and Fa 0/3 ports?
Similarly, if we have got a router with ports Gig 0/0/0, Gig 0/0/1 and Gig 1/0/0 ports.
Can we create a L2/L3 Etherchannel group 10 with Gig 0/0/0 and Gig 0/0/1 ports and one more L2/L3 Etherchannel group 20 with Gig 0/0/0, Gig 0/0/1 and Gig 1/0/0 ports?
What impact is it going to have on our network ? Will it cause any problems or disruption to our network in such scenarios? Is it recommended to configure different etherchannel groups with different combo of ports on device or we can follow the above mentioned procedure for L2/L3 Etherchannel group configuration?
