Can a 16-year-old decide which parent he wants to live with regardless of who has custody?
If you mean without your parent's consent the answer is no. Relating to a divorce, some state courts will consider your request regarding residential custody but are not obligated to follow it. In many states you can apply for emancipation by the court at the age of 16. In that case you need to check the laws of your state or country.

Depending on the age of the child & the state in which they reside, the court may let them determine where they choose to live.
