Is it possible to get a double neck guitar that is twelve string and bass?

Anything is possible if you have the money for it. If you call or email a particular company you like that makes double-neck guitars, just ask them for an estimate on a twelve-string/bass double neck. Note that if you do this, you're going to want to use a bass amplifier, as playing an electric bass through a guitar amp will blow out your speakers. (Guitar amps are not meant to handle the low register of a bass.) In the mockumentary movie "Spinal Tap," you can see a double-necked bass when they're playing "Tonight I'm going to rock you tonight" You can also research the Chapman Stick, an instrument that uses both guitar and bass strings. It's probably not what you're looking for, but an interesting instrument nonetheless.
