Is it possible to change material without changing other objects?
I know that this is a feature but I'd like the same object with a different material. Such as when I have two or more of the same object, I would change one and the rest would follow as normal. But is it possible to have a copy of an object with a different material at the same time? Thanks a billion!
Are you talking about while the game is Playing, or while you're using the editor?
Are you thinking of how when you drag two things into the scene, they both share the same material; and you'd like the second one to get it's own copy of the material?

Yes. That's the difference between renderer.sharedMaterial
(changes affect all instances) and renderer.material
(changes affect only this instance).
