I'm looking into my first build and am a noob, but I was wondering that if I get a msi b350m mobo with a graphics card for games that in the future if I was get to get a second monitor could I use the onboard graphics of the mobo to run a second screen for basic stuff.

In order for the onboard video ports to work you'd need a Ryzen APU and those have yet to be released for retail purchase. Most modern dedicated gpus are capable of running atleast 2 monitors. Depending what you do on the 2nd monitor they usually have little to no affect on the gpus performance.
