Comet goldfish need at least 30 gallons each because of the type of fish they are (single tail), the fact that they can grow extremely long, and they produce a lot of waste.
A fancy goldfish (fatter with more tails) need 20 gallons for just one fish, so either way, your 1 gallon tank cannot hold any goldfish at all.

How many comet goldfish can you keep in a 120 liter tank?

Comet goldfish grow to be around a foot long. 120 liters is about 30 gallons so I say about 2. Get fancy goldfish because you could do even five in a tank that size because they don't get as big.

Can two comets live in a five gallon tank?

No. Goldfish cannot live in a five gallon tank at all, they are very messy and potentially large fish that require an absolute minimum of 20 gallons. For a 5 gallon coldwater tank, paradise fish or white cloud mountain minnows would be attractive choices. For a tropical tank there are a lot of small species suitable for a nano tank, and you could consider the ever-popular betta, or some tetras or dwarf rainbowfish.
