in general yes a person can be both, its called being dual diagnosed when someone is diagnosed with 2 or more different problems.

more specifically we cant diagnose you or anyone else that you may feel is this way. only their own treatment providers can decide whether this person actually is both or not.

my suggestion is leave the diagnosing of mental problem up to this persons own treatment providers and you either remain their friend or stay away from them based on your relationship with this person in a non medical mental health diagnosis way.
