Hi Vigneshkumar, you definitely should be able to do this, adding them as usual to https://<base-url>/secure/admin/ConfigureDvcsOrganizations!default.jspa. We are using GitHub Enterprise personally, but have it connected to two different GHE servers without  issue.

Hi Alex , Thank you for the response , I am new to jira Can I get  the detail picture of this ?

Hi Vigneshkumar - looks like the best resource for Gitlab is this: https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/user/project/integrations/jira.html

Does that answer your question?

@Alex Gallien  , Thank you !!

As per the below Documentation   , do we need to create the separate Users for each gitlab ? 

https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/user/project/integrations/jira_server_configuration.html

Please correct me if I am Wrong !!

So I haven't personally integrated GitLab, but from those docs it looks like that is a service user created at the Jira level, so multiple instances should be able to use the same service account. That's typically how we have things set up.
