Hi,
Yes, you can claim PIP and Carers Allowance at the same time.
Just to have to be a bit careful to make sure it doesn't contradict the reasons you were awarded PIP.

hiya. I get carers but I wasn’t sure about pip as I’m eligible for pip x

Ah ok, it's the same but works in reverse in that case. Prepare for the assessors to use your caring responsibilities against you at a PIP assessment.
