It is possible to have two betta in an aquarium for a short while but you would need at least a 6 foot tank with heaps of water plants and other places like rock formations (hidey holes). The reason for this is to avoid them seeing one each other and a place for the victim to retreat to. Eventually they will meet and there will be fighting if you have two males, or flashing followed by nest building and spawning if you have a pair. Once the breeding is over the female will be fleeing.

Only female Bettas can be kept together. That too will only work if they are given reasonably roomy conditions and plenty of cover (plants) and hidey holes. Male betta fish can/ will fight to death if there is another male fish in the tank, a male will sometimes eat a female so your best bet is to have a single betta or a female and a female.
