Under certain circumstances, yes. These regulations strictly apply only to the US Army, but I suspect most other armies have similar rules.
There is a regulation prohibiting officers from datingenlisted personnel, which could make the courtship phase a little difficult. Also, the commander would have to be satisfied that the relationship did not violate "the needs of good order and discipline."
It could, however, happen that two enlisted members were dating, and one of them was then commissioned or selected as a warrant officer. In that case, they are not considered to be in violation of the regulations, as long as they either stop dating or get married within one year of the start of the program or before the promotion actually occurs, whichever comes later.

The term "top" when referring to a US Army First Sergeant is derived from the phrase "top sergeant." This phrase likely originated from the idea that the First Sergeant holds a position of high authority and responsibility within the unit, often serving as the senior non-commissioned officer (NCO) and advisor to the commanding officer. The use of "top" is a colloquialism that has become synonymous with the role of a First Sergeant in the army.
