Can we use separate logistic models to test the effect of different groups of independent variables on the same y variable?
or is it necessary to put all independent variables in a single logistic equation?

You can always perform separate logistic regressions. However, a multiple logistic regression model exploits the correlation structure of the variables, something that you lose by handling each variable separately.
