Can two people work on the same project simultaneously?
I and my friend wanna work on a Unity project together, I was wondering if, by any chance, it was possible for us to work on the same project, on different computers, at the same time; basically, I'd be in Unity and he'd be, and we'd be able to see changes either of us made in real-time. I hardly doubt this is possible but maybe it is, so someone please tell me.

Unity has Collaborate (https://unity3d.com/unity/features/collaborate). Click the 'collab' button (top right) and set it up for collab. Then add your friend to the project in the Services window :) Good luck

What you are looking for is what developers refer to as "source or version control". Unity Collaborate is a simplified source control system, but not one I am not personally familiar with.
If you are looking for something that is more proven and robust, I have been using SourceTree (a free Git client) for years with teams of various sizes and experience with great results. Unity has their own tutorial on setting this up, and there is a TON of information out there in general on how to use it. It also can introduce you to Git, which is a good thing for any developer to be familiar with.

Use Unity Collaborate to work together, but, you won't be able to see the changes in real-tme.
