Your English is much better than my Spanish! :)
Yes, you can join your batteries in parallel without any problems.

You can connect the two batteries in parallel to achieve more amperage at the same voltage, however having two different Amp hour ratings on the batteries may allow one to absorb the charge current at differing rates, ie one may actually rob the other due to the differing capacities of the batterys.
It is always more prudent to use two identical type, amp hour rating and age of batteries together for long life and reliable performance.
In your case coupling the two batterys will limit the life of at least one of the battery's.
