Yes, but only in principle. In practice, you won't live long enough.
Putting it in more positive terms:
No matter how many lines have already been drawn perpendicular to a
given line [segment], there's always enough room for a lot more of them.

How many perpendicular lines does a heptagon have?
An infinite number. Each point on a line, however small the line is, can have a perpendicular through it. And since there are an infinite number of points on any line, the answer is an infinite number.
