i want to know if a can multiplex gpio pins. i have to add air quality sensor, in my device but MCU dont have GPIOs left. Please recommend solution.
 
Yes of course you can multiplex I/O pins, it's a standard technique going back to the very early days of micro-processors.
 
As Pommie, says, it all depends on what the other pins are doing, you may well be able to better utilise what you've got.

Even if you can't, you can't multiplex a single pin, you need multiple pins to feed the multiplexer/port expander - so you would need to move some of your existing I/O's to the multiplexed connections.
