Is it possible to have one pipe going to the (single) discharge stack
and two baths connected to it, one of them as a branch?
If so, will a 40mm pipe be enough?

Thanks in advance

1 1/2" pipe is the bare minimum for any waste line, and if by bath you
mean the typical shower or tub plus toilet and sink - nope, not even
close.

Still nope. Check your local building code. Around here two tubs
would require a 2" pipe as a minimum.
