Yes you can have both of them on your computer
Eclipse is an IDE ( Integrated Development Environment)
Maven one of the tools used now a days for Projects which gives more advantages than its predecessors like ANT. To understand simple way is instead of giving it all the JAR files used by our Project, we maintain a repository in our Organization where the company in house development team would identify all the Required JAR files for the Projects they work on and store them at a Common place called "Repository"
We would mention our Repository location for our Maven, along with Settings on our Machine.
Advantages
- Project size is very low and hence projects can be migrated from Development Environment to Testing Environment without the JAR files, which would be fetched once in test environment and executed from the Repository
Eclipse is Development Environment which assists developers in their quest to develop advanced software components easily with lots of plugin available for integration.
Maven is also one of them
Hope it answers your question :)
