It is possible that if you take a Y-cable for each of the 6 fan connections that you can then control 12 fans, isn't it? Because I don't want to buy 2 Commander Pro and so I watched a few YT videos and the people there said that you could connect 2 fans per connection.

At most, the power supply could be problematic (54W at 12V) if you install power-hungry fans.

Examples:
For Corsair iCUE QL120 RGB the specification is 0.3A x 12V (6x fans) = approx. 21.6W / 12 fans approx. 43.2W
Noctua NF-A14 PPC 3000 PWM 0.55A x 12V (6x fans) = 39.6W
The internal control etc. also needs power, of course, you don't want to load the connections to the maximum (usually approx. 80% of the max. possible load, which results in approx. 43.2W).

Theoretically possible, as long as not all fans are used to their maximum capacity over a longer period of time, if you have 0.3A x 12V fans as in the example.
