Adding one suggestion to Raicya’s already quite complete reply:


On your Mac … setup and use two separate local login accounts; each with it’s own local username and password.


Then configure the two separate local users with their respective AppleID login credentials.

Ah OK, that's clear why you want to use 2 x Apple ID on one Mac PC.

That is possible, you can also set up Family Sharing, see the following Apple articles:
