Head of household requires that the person filing that way has provided more than half of the cost of keeping up the home. There are some other requirements too. It's pretty hard to see how two people could EACH have paid MORE THAN HALF the cost of keeping up the home.
That's the long answer. The short answer: NO.
Unless of course there are two separate sets of living quarters, like a duplex, but only one address - that would be pretty unusual since then it's usually either xxxA and xxxB.

Head of household can only be one person. If it is a two family home then you may want to check with the IRS for that answer.

Only if there are two separate households. An unmarried couple, each with their own dependent child and each paying more than 50% of the upkeep for their own child who lived with them for more than half the year, probably can each file as HoH.

Two different households under the same roof? Maybe, call the IRS or look on their website...
