var firsttext = [document.querySelector("#firsttext").element, document.querySelector("#secondtext").element];


if (!estValide(this))
  {
    afficheur.sendMessage("Case occupée ! <br />Joueur " + firsttext[tour] + " c'est toujours à vous !");

  }

The shorter and cleaner way to do this is to use a single button to check and retrieve both the input values then assign the retrieved values to your firsttext array like this:

/* JavaScript */

var btn = document.querySelector("button");
var firsttext = [];

btn.addEventListener("click", function(){
  var player1 = document.getElementById("firsttext");
  var player2 = document.getElementById("secondtext");
  
  if (player1.value != "" && player2.value != "") {
    firsttext.push(player1.value);
    firsttext.push(player2.value);
    alert(firsttext);
    return firsttext;
  } else {
  	alert("Enter players' names");
  }
	
});

<!-- HTML -->

<section id="first_section" class="first_section">
  <input type="text" placeholder="Nom du premier joueur" id="firsttext"><br>
</section>
<p></p>
<section id="second_section" class="second_section">
  <input type="text" placeholder="Nom du deuxième joueur" id="secondtext"><br>

</section>

<section id="button">
    <button type="button" id="second_button">Suivant ></button>
</section>
