Is this sentence grammatically correct?

1."Did it not mention who did the host invite to the party?"

2."It's not that he didn't do it because he didn't feel like it, but because he didn't have the time"

Hi, I'd like to know if it's possible to use, (did) and (because) more than once in the same sentence

Thank you
