This is called a binary planet. They are ususally very close together and share a gravitaional pull. A good example of a binary planet planet is the ex-planet Pluto, which rotates with it's satellite Charon. Charon was believed to have been the "moon" belonging to Pluto, but recently scientists decided to strip Pluto of it's "planetary" status, and have also stripped Charon of it's "moon" status. They have now been renamed and are considered to be BINARY stars. Pluto is considered to be a "minor" planet now because of this.
