Not if it is a modern coin. Modern coin minting equipment has the obverse (heads) and the reverse (Tails) dies "keyed" meaning that you can't insert an obverse die where the reverse die goes and vice versa. Because of it, it is impossible to have what most people think of a double headed coin. It is however possible to have what is known as a "Brockage" error where a coin gets stuck to the die and then the coin acts as a die for the next coin. This would mean that a coin could have 2 heads, but one side would be a reverse image of the other side.

Look at the date again. NO Washington quarter should have a date before 1932. Double headed and double tailed coins are called magician's coins and are made by machining and joining parts from two real quarters. They have no numismatic value but are sold by novelty shops for $5 - $10 and are available on eBay for $2 - $3.
