depends on the scope of what you want to look at
if it is two personal computers - one person uses verison to connect to the internet while one uses people pc - then no, they will have different IP addresses.
if you have a business setup with an internal network then yes there is a fairly good chance that two computers will have the same IP address - it is just that the internet cannot see them - so it will work
in short there are reserved IP addresses - 10.###.###.### is one of them - it can only be used in an internal intranet. the computer can still access the internet by way of the corperate router though. with larger businesses using a 10.###.###.### addresses internaly in a large city like New York - may computers might have an address of 10.123.234.10
if you want a longer expanation - e-mail me on it

If they are both on AOL, they can have the same public IP address. AOL has a limited number of public IPs and so reuses them for thier clients and figures it out on the back end. Likewise, if you use a gateway (like a DSL router) you also likely have a 192.168.0.x local IP. Another computer on the same local network would have a different local IP (for example yours is 192.168.0.2 and the other one is 192.168.0.3), but the gateway has just one public IP by which both of the computers are referenced.

no two computers anywhere in the world should have the same ip address as this would cause conflicts however internal networks use the same range of reserved ips but as they are not being used outside the network they don't cause problems with other networks using the same internal ip.
Its all a bit technical.

You get an IP address Conflict message or your network will flatass not work.
IP addresses are specific to subnets within your network (or your ISP's network.)

If they are on separate networks, yes. If this is their IP assigned to them by their ISP, then no.
