How can iCloud Keychain work for two people on same Mac?

Can two people set up iCloud Keychain on the same mac computer? We are a married couple using the same desktop mac, each with our own iphones. Or is keychain really for only one person to use.

it is for one Apple ID to use - if you both use the same Apple ID (usually not recommended but i works for me and my wife) then every thing is shared - if you each have your own Apple ID then you can not share a keychain or anything else except what Family sharing shares if you have it set up - Family Sharing - Apple
