Yes, they are two different products and should “co-exist” ok.
However, AVG antivirus is great, but I don’t know about their anti-spyware.
For anti-spyware, I would suggest SpyBot S&D and Ad-Aware.
Good luck.

Absolutely, you can have both. It’s a good idea too, to keep your computer protected! You should also do a disk cleanup every couple of days to get rid of your cache and cookies, and make sure you do the virus and spyware scans once in a while to make sure your computer is still clean.

Yes they get along well together. Only one antivirus at a time, but you can have as many antispyware apps as you want.

AVG Antivirus and AVG Antispyware can exist on the same computer without any problems.
Even if you have a different antivirus like Nod32, you can still have it along with AVG Antispyware (not the antivirus though).
If you like, I also recommend SuperAntispyware free for additional protection:
