You can absolutely turn a single vanity into a double. There are multiple options with the water lines. Is copper stubbed out of your wall? Pex? If copper is present-you can remove the individual shutoffs and install a dual outlet 3/8x1/2 compression shut off valve; or you can sweat a tee on the bull of the fitting and install individual lines and shutoffs to each vanity. If there is pex-do as described above and install tee.
The drain is simple-remove old trap adapter and install a wye fitting. Run individual drain lines to each one with the proper pitch.

They also make an "add-a-tee" fitting that you can screw on to the outlet of an existing angle stop and it has 2 ports to run water flex lines. You just have to find long enough flex lines and you wont be able to isolate just one sink if you have to shut them off.
