Not that I know of, but it is easily possible, in the way that one was born for example, 31st December at two minutes to midnight but the other only got out at 5 past midnight on the "same day" but it was already 2011. Sort of logistic really but not really very common. Hope I helped xx

The earliest are so-called "Biddenen Maids", Mary and Eliza Chulkhurst, born in England in 1100. They were said to be conjoined from the hip, but sometimes also from the shoulders.

How do twins get conjoined?
Conjoined twins are basically two beings made from the one egg or cell, and this egg has not broken apart properly, and so the twins have been fused together. They may share the same organs - like brain, shoulder, heart, leg...etc. Sometimes they are separated in order to be able to live separate lives.
Do conjoined twins have the same sex?
Yes. Conjoined twins are always identical (monozygotic) twins, and identical twins are always the same sex.There is a theoretical case where identical twins could be opposite genders, when the babies are female but in one of the females, a branch of one X chromosome breaks away; however, I don't believe this has ever been observed.
Can someone have two heads?
Yes, a person can have two heads due to a rare medical condition known as conjoined twins, specifically when the twins are joined at the head, a condition called craniopagus. These individuals share certain bodily systems and organs but have distinct brains and personalities. While it's extremely rare, conjoined twins with two heads have been documented in medical history.
What are the 2 kinds of twins?
Generally fraternal twins are more common. For fraternal twins to occur twins must diverge, but differentiate upon becoming separate entities. Identical twins are rarer, in which the two siblings are of the same gender and are exactly alike upon birth. Rarer so are conjoined, or "Siamese" twins. This occurs when twins are born partially or extremely fused together. There is only a 25% survival chance for a conjoined twin. Most were only connected by gristle and flesh, and could have been easily separated easily, were they in modern society.
What is the difference between identical twins and conjoined twins?
Conjoined twins are identical but attached to each other and may share organs depending where they are attached to the others body. Conjoined twins are attached because the egg cells have not separated properly in the mothers womb.
Who separated the first twins conjoined at the head?
Benjamin S. Carson. That's what he has be claiming for years. That does not make it any more correct though. 8 years before that Dr. Theodore Roberts and his team did just that for the Hansen Twin's at the University of Utah Medical Center.
