Is it possible for two entities to have multiple of the same relationships with each other?

This is my current graph model.

How do I represent that a leader may start leading a group, leave and come back to lead the same group multiple times?

Eg. Rambo may lead the expendables from 2015-2016, and then may also come back to lead them again in 2017-18.

Hi John, Yes we can:

CREATE (L:Leader{Name:"John Doe"})-[:LEADS{startDate:"2020-08-20", terminationDate:"2020-08-20"}]->(G:Group{Title:"Alpha"}) return L,G

match (L:Leader{Name:"John Doe"}),(G:Group{Title:"Alpha"})
create (L)-[:LEADS{startDate:"2019-08-20", terminationDate:"2019-08-20"}]->(G)
return L,G

But...
If you need to query event create a node (:EVENT) with start date and enddate can be useful.
