Bellow the scope of ASME BPVC IX 2007. It is possible to support a WPS from one Company using a PQR made by another company?

Not unless they are part of the same organization (e.g. sister companies in a corporation) and their quality program describes the controls for use of PQR performed by the other company.  QW-201 contains the following requirement:

Each manufacturer or contractor shall qualify the WPS
by the welding of test coupons and the testing of specimens
(as required in this Code), and the recording of the
welding data and test results in a document known as a
Procedure Qualification Record (PQR).
