Thanks for help.

You can choose pretty much any font you want at pretty much any time using the features of package fontspec. — Johannes_B, Sep 24 '16 at 07:24
I cannot, i have to leave no. Have a look at the package documentation or search the site for fontspec. — Johannes_B, Sep 24 '16 at 07:29

Option 1: LaTeX

Select the Times font, which looks a lot like Times New Roman. More info here.

MWE

\documentclass{article}

\begin{document}
My cat has black skin. % in primary font

{\fontfamily{ptm}\selectfont
My second cat has white skin.} % I would like to get in Times New Roman
\end{document}

Result

Option 2: XeLaTeX/LuaLaTeX

Select fonts installed on you computer using fontspec as Johannes_B suggested. Now you have to compile using XeLaTeX or LuaLaTeX though. (thanks clemens)

MWE

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{fontspec}
% Compile with XeLaTeX

\newfontfamily\myfont{times.ttf}
\begin{document}
My cat has black skin. % in primary font

{\myfont
My second cat has white skin.} % I would like to get in Times New Roman
\end{document}

Result

Now you have to compile using XeLaTeX though. misses a “or LuaLaTeX” :) — cgnieder, Sep 24 '16 at 13:27
