Sure, you can purchase as many CAL licenses as you like.
Or you can switch to Core license, the the count of users don't matter.

    Hi, thanks, but i cant find the answer there.
    My question was related to the first question, when Cynthia says Sql Server Std edition it includes 10 user CALs. it is true ? because in the product description of SKU DG7GMGF0M80J SQL Server 2022 Standard Edition Perpetual 1 Server License plus 10 CALs there is no mention about the type of CALs. Thanks in advance for your help
