As the game has explored, almost anything is possible with enough will and aether. Time travel has happened recently, as LiadansWhisper notes -- at the end of 1.x. Whether that was just the singular Warrior of Light or a collection of adventurers in the wrong place at the wrong time depends on your point of view, but in general, I've found that people are pretty accepting about being time-warped by the anomaly at Carteneau (not to be confused with the hot new band making the rounds, Anomaly at Carteneau).
With that said, though, time travel outside of that event is a pretty big stretch for RP, and a lot of characters will be skeptical of the claim. I would also expect a fair bit of OOC pushback. On that basis, the question I'd ask is, "what does this bring to the table narratively that a simpler approach wouldn't address?" Since you control both characters, you can easily write a chance meeting into their backstories. From that chance meeting, which your first character thought nothing of, your second character takes away a dream and a drive to be like the Hero they met once. In essence, your second character is always chasing after your first one, trying to emulate them and follow in their footsteps. If that gets the effect you want, then does the time travel add enough more to your story to justify the bigger ask it makes of your fellow players to accept it?
