No, they have separate nervous systems. However the circulatory and digestive tracts ae intelocked and in series, so to speak. One has digestive problems, so does the other.
Conjoined twins cannot be bred. This condition is not genetic.A set of male conjoined twins fathering children with a set of female conjoined twins will almost certainly produce children who are not even twins at all.

There is no genetic component that results in conjoined twins. They are created by an imperfect separation of identical twin concepti.
Twins that fail to separate at birth are called conjoined twins. They are physically connected to each other at birth due to incomplete division of the fertilized egg.
Nature has various safety valves. That is one of them. Conjoined Twins are identical twins with a natural connective bond, therefore they always take the same sex. Fraternal twins, like the fictional Bobbseys, can be Boy and Girl.
If they share a brain then they only have one set of thoughts.
No, not all conjoined twins are the same sex. While most conjoined twins are identical and share the same sex due to their identical genetic makeup, there are rare cases where conjoined twins can be fraternal, resulting in one twin being male and the other female. The occurrence of conjoined twins is quite rare, and the sex combination can vary depending on the type of twinning that occurs.
The term is "Siamese" twins and they are twins who are conjoined. Usually they share a vital organ or two making surgical separation impossible. They get their name from the original conjoined twins, Chang and Eng Bunker who were from the country of Siam.
Conjoined twins are basically two beings made from the one egg or cell, and this egg has not broken apart properly, and so the twins have been fused together. They may share the same organs - like brain, shoulder, heart, leg...etc. Sometimes they are separated in order to be able to live separate lives.

conjoined twins are very very very rare .
Twins that are born connected are called conjoined twins. There are different kinds of conjoined twins, including thoracopagus, omphalopagus, and craniophagus twins, While thoracopagus twins are connected at the torso's top portion and can share one heart, omphalopagus twins are joined from the breastbone to the waist and share a liver. Craniophagus twins are connected at the head region.
In the development process, either the egg didn't completely split, or they joined together at some point. Typically conjoined twins share one or more body systems. Usually they have a common circulation system. Depending on what organs or systems they share, they may be able to be split apart.
