Is it possible for a prophet to believe something a previous prophet did not but still be a prophet?

Why not? The Adam-God theory comes to my mind. Brigham Young believed in this doctrine and was later recanted by the church.

Excellent question. I think it's possible because prophets have their own views and revelations may change from time to time.

Prophets can believe whatever they please, they're not bound to believe certain things depending on which prophet from the past we're talking about. The Lord has the right to give revelation at any time and whatever He feels is needed for the Saints.
