No, you can't have more than one animal companion. No it doesn't add to the party level.

That is up to your DM. You might be able to talk your DM into letting you use the 3rd edition animal companion rules, which allowed you to have many companions with their total HD equal to yours (I believe). Of course these animals are just standards and do not advance (you advance by getting more animals). So you have one animal in 3.5 that advances as you do, or you have possible several in 3rd that do not advance.

and will my animal companion's level add to our party level.
No, the animal companion is part of your class abilities, and so is already figured in just as a paladin's mount or a wizard's familiar.
