Laohg ReaperIt is two person in one ***.Yes, it could work. For example, this is an example randomly thrown up by Google search which reads fine:
In the New Testament, the Apostle John begins by making the duality of *** clear ... but he never mentions the Holy Spirit -- this is known as a binitarian position.

Twin or pair. Duality and dualism imply two things that are opposites or different, while twin and pair suggest two things that are like one, as trinity implies three things that are united as a single entity.

Laohg ReaperWhat is 'two deities in one' called, if 'three deities in one' is called a triune deity?Apparently the word is "biune". This is a very rare word, and I think most native speakers would not know it (I didn't). However, there are a few credible-looking Google hits for "biune deity", so it seems that the term does actually exist.
