Um NO
Males will fight other males and male female pairing WILL breed.
Females can in some cases be housed together but its not a suggested practice and even the best keepers can end up with maimed dragons from it.
here is something for you to read
hope it helps

I second that! Beardies are not social creatures. They are not meant to be housed together. Yes, there are success stories, but there are more horror stories than success.

Your best bet is to get separate vivs for them and ensure they can't see each other.

Just seconding Brian and Renee here. Every beardie you get needs a separate enclosure. Beardies are not social creatures. Many sad stories of injury and/or death have been as a result of housing beardies together.
