Can you record radio and phone on the same logging recorder?

Yes. Many logging recorders, like Exacom's HindSight recorder, allow you to record multiple types of mission-critical communications on a single platform.

Exacom is a leading provider of multimedia (analog, RoIP, VoIP, text /SMS, and screen capture) logging/recording solutions across public safety, government, Department of Defense, energy, utilities, transportation, and security applications.
