Hello
is it possible to set up emacs to understand that two files with the same
extension are actually written in two different programming languages?
perl = .pl
prolog = .pl
same extensions, but very different code.
would it be possible, and in that case how?

Make your first line in the file like this:
<comment specific to that mode> -*- mode: <mode-name> -*-
for example:
;; -*- mode: emacs-lisp -*-
or
// -*- mode: java -*-
