A drainage basin is simply an area between two ridges from which water drains as a stream or river. A small creek has its own drainage basin. The drainage basin of the Mississippi River includes everything between the Rocky Mountains and the Adirondacks.

Can you live in two watersheds?
There's some ambiguity in the question. The word "watershed" is used differently in different places. In the United States it usually means "drainage basin" or "catchment". In Europe, it usually means "divide" (as in "Continental Divide"), or the boundary between drainage basins. I'm assuming you mean the "catchment" usage, since it doesn't make sense to ask if you can live "in" a boundary. However, you can certainly live ON a boundary, in which case part of your property may be in one drainage basin and the rest in another. In that case, the answer is yes.
