Shouldn't it be, "Can I ask you two questions?" instead of "Can I ask you a question?"

No, it should be "Can I ask you another question?".
-
You should say; I have a question for you.
-
You first say -- May I ask you a question? When it's answered, you say -- May I ask you another question? Note that you will always can, but it is the word "may" you should use.
-
I try not to say "Can I ask you a question" if I can help it. I've gotten the "Oh, looks like you used up your question" too much. I try, "are you busy? I have some things to ask you" or "Mind if I ask you a few things?" It keeps it open for more than one question.
-
No, you're asking permission to ask the second question, not the first question, the first question you just asked without permission.
-
No, because you have already asked, so it's a little late to ask for permission, that's out of the question. : )
