Hi @muller and welcome to the community. Here's a link to the eligibility criteria https://www.gov.uk/carers-allowance/eligibility . I also found this discussion from 2021 which says that you can, however, I'm aware that information may be out of date. I can't see a reason why you can't both claim as long as you both meet the criteria.

Then providing your husband doesn't earn more than £151/week then he claim carers allowance for looking after you, providing your PIP includes the daily living part.
