They can yes, but it does not mean that you will. When it comes to class seats, you will get whatever they have.

In my last AIT, there were two married (to each other) IET Soldiers in my class. So yes, it can be done. However, they were under strict rules of no cohabitation. They were not authorized housing. They were in the barracks in separate areas. They were not authorized to Battle Buddy with each other anywhere on post.

Kind of bothers me if they can't be separated that long. Doesn't bode well for future assignments IMO.
