You can upload exactly the same apps on PlayStore if package names are different.

Yes you can, certainly. And it's very easy to if you're using Flavors, as introduced with the Gradle build system.

You should ensure that each app you submit to Google Play has a different, package name, if you're using Flavors you can do this like this:

android {  
    productFlavors {
        free {
            applicationId "com.app.free"
        }

        pro {
            applicationId "com.app.full"
        }
    }
}

There are many great tutorials on using Flavors, so it shouln't be to hard to get started too.

If you're not a big fan of using Gradle, you can of-course maintain two projects with different package names and submit them both to Google Play, but I wouldn't recommend doing so.
