Is it possible for two people to be at the same exact latitude and longitude at the same time?
No. Solar Noon is dependent on longitude. So if two places experience solar noon (also called Local Apparent Noon) at the same time, they are at the same longitude. If "they" also have the same latitude, then it's only one place. So two different places at the same latitude cannot have the same longitude, so they won't have LAN at the same time.
