Answer

Yes. Empower is an activated ability and follows the process of going onto the chain and resolving, similar to playing a card. Being an activated ability brings with it certain restrictions. By default, you can activate it only while its source is not [Empowered] and during your own Main Phase while no showdown, combat, or chain is in progress. After the ability is finalized and no other cards or abilities are waiting to finalize, opponents have an opportunity to play Reactions before it resolves. Only after the full chain of the first Empower has resolved can the second Empower activated ability be started.
