Can I do Animal Kingdom and Epcot in the same day?

Sure, you can park at EPCOT and hop the bus to Animal Kingdom Theme Park (and back); however, it will involve transferring busses, which could cut into the time you could enjoy at each theme park. You would park at EPCOT, hop a bus to one of the resorts, and then transfer to the Animal Kingdom Theme Park bus.
