No federal official can hold two positions at the same time. The President can become Chief Justice of the US Supreme Court after his (or her) administration has ended, or can become President after serving as Chief Justice.
William Howard Taft is an example of a President who later became Chief Justice. Taft was in the White House from 1909-1913, and presided over the Supreme Court from 1921-1930.
