Can you capture an elite skill when u already have 1 on your belt?

I know you can only bring 1 elite skill with you at any one time, but i think you can have more than one in your skill list, yes?

But what if i go into a mission with an elite skill and a Signet Of Capture, and i want to capture a 2nd elite skill? Will i even be able to do so? Or must i remove the 1st elite skill when i go for the mission?

i have been told the only time you can have 2 elites on your bar is when you capture it
you have to ditch 1 as soon as you get back to civilization though

I know this is a VERY OLD THREAD but just wanted to state that you can have 1 elite already in your skill-set AND as soon as you cap a new elite this elite replaces the cap sig used to capture your new elite and it stays in your skill-set UNTIL you walk through a portal whether it be a new explorable area or a town, as well as mapping to a town.
