Yes, you can contribute to an IRA after you retire (with caveats). If you are retired and your spouse has earned income, he or she can contribute to their own IRA and also make what is called a spousal contribution to your IRA.

Contributing to an IRA or Roth IRA during retirement has benefits, depending on your particular situation. First, make sure that you actually have the taxable compensation required to make the traditional IRA or Roth IRA contributions you're considering making.

For contributions to a Roth IRA, make sure you can contribute to a Roth IRA right from the start.
