If they spawn naturally then yes, but if you use commands max npcs could be 100 - 1000, depending on how strong your pc is.

Without cheats/commands, one of each NPC type will appear in a town. There's 15 NPCs available before you defeat the Wall of Flesh in Hell and 7 NPCs available in Hardmode (after you defeat the Wall of Flesh), though one of the Hardmode ones won't be available again until next December 15. There's also three NPCs that won't live in a home: the Old Man that appears outside a world's dungeon and despawns after defeating Skeletron, the Travelling Merchant that appears randomly after you have at least 2 NPCs not including the Old Man, and the Skeleton Merchant that appears randomly underground and disappears after you leave him and he goes far enough off-screen. So there's a total of 25 NPCs, 22 of which you can house and use in the future as long as they don't die.
