no a police cannot register an fir against the same person in respect of the same matter in the same police station when the matter is already pending before the court. complaint can be made regarding similar type of offence but the complainant and subject matter must be different

I think you should meet a lawyer with the complete details because it seems the intricacies involved can be best assessed only after going through the complete case details of both the cases. it is only then a meaningful advice can be rendered.
