How to get to 20 pull-ups while having also muscle growth?
As a followup to this question, can I get to 20 pull-ups (instead of push-ups), doing the same routine as in the ascepted answer? i.e. going for failure, with moderate speed repetitions, and resting half a minute between each serie.

Also, is it possible to get some muscle growth while doing that routine? I'm asking because I don't know if one can train to have muscular endurance while having muscular growth at the same time.

20 pullups is more strength than endurance. The only way to get you to 20 pullups, is to increase strength in the relevant muscle groups.

So in short, you don't need to worry about the dichotomy of "strength OR endurance" here. I'd save those thoughts for when you start thinking of doing some number that requires you to go on for several minutes.
