Can a secondary domain point to an existing nameserver and be redirected?

Question

I have a client that has two domains. ex: domain1.net.br and domain2.net.

domain1.net.br is already registered in my aws route53 and has 4 nameservers assigned to it.

I told my client that he should use the same nameservers for domain2.net to make it redirect.

I tought this would work but It didn't.

Shouldn't any domain having the nameservers be able to redirect to another domain?

You are correct, this will not work. Route 53 assigned unique name servers for each of your domains.

Shouldn't any domain having the nameservers be able to redirect to another domain?

HTTP redirects are not a function of a name server, but of a web server. The easiest way to redirect domain2.net to domain1.net.br is to create an Amazon S3 bucket and utilize the Web Page Redirects feature.
