Only your local council will be able to answer that but I doubt you would qualify.

You would need to speak to your Local Authority or landlord for this. Although it may not be easy to get the extra bedroom.

You could refer yourself and/or your partner for a needs assessment from your local Authority, this may help if they put in a recommendation. https://www.nhs.uk/conditions/social-care-and-support-guide/help-from-social-services-and-charities/getting-a-needs-assessment/

You will likely need backing from social care..

As others have said this would require a needs assessment. You'd need to very clearly state the issues it causes, including knock-on effects . Things like 'I'm too tired to properly carry out household tasks that would normally be done' etc.
