If it's your own questionnaire there shouldn't be a problem, although the new study should extract different information from the questionnaire or address different research questions; i.e. it should be different enough so as to not look like self-plagiarism. If it's not your own questionnaire you may also need to get permission to reuse the questionnaire.
