no. he will remain at his current duty station unless he were to retrain into the same MOS you are going into.

During AIT you will have to live in the barracks. You will get visitors at graduation. AIT is like a continuation of Basic Training, but not as "in-your-face" as the frist 3 weeks of Basic are.
After graduation, the Army will station you together if possible, but a lot of dual military come to a point where career advancement and assignment at the same post are not possible. This depends on your MOS, rank and other factors.

Actually, the military is VERY good about stationing spouses together. However, that will almost certainly not be the case during AIT. Morelikely they'll assign him to your follow on base, and/or assign you to his base after you finish AIT. He can visit though.
What you might prefer to look into is the guard/reserve. That lets you be int he Army while also giving you the flexibility to move where he is. If you're looking for a full-time job out of it, you can usually find an ADSW/AGR/miltech position in conjunction with your guard/reserve obligation.

During AIT it is not likely you can have your husband transfer down there for a short period of time. Usually once you get stationed you have at least 2 years there.
My husband and I were dual military for 6 years. It isn't easy but was well worth it. Make sure if you do join you both fill out the Army married couples program paperwork so you can be joint domicile. Good luck to you both.

During AIT do not expect to be stationed together. That time is for you to focus on your training. Once you complete your AIT it is very possible to be stationed together.

Unless your husband was already assigned to the base you do your AIT at, no. After you complete your training you could apply for a joint transfer (I forget the Army terminology for it)

Very rarely do spouses get stationed together, especially if you have kids. But the Army will put you one place and him another. Lets say you were together, and a bomb goes off, you would be more concerned about each other and not doing the job you were trained to do with your unit.
