A switch would be preferred… however, there is a workaround. You can buy and pair of Ethernet splitter that will take a normal 8 conductor Ethernet cable and split it into two four conductor cables. The downside is with four conductors you are limited to 100Mbps. I used them back in the day when we needed two ports.

I’d still recommend a switch.
