I would like to have 2 folders with almost the same content - all subfolder, all files should be the same except 2 files. If I change something in one folder (file content, create new file, delete some file), then it should be changed in the second folder except these 2 files. Can I achieve the same with symlinks? How to create them?

You can achieve this by wiping out the secondary folder, and making the secondary folder a symlink to the primary storage folder.
To create a symlink in OSX, open a terminal window, and do the following:
cd <primary_directory_path_parent_directory>
ln -s <path_to_secondary_directory> <primary_directory_name>
This should take care of what you're looking for.
