In this case, it would depend a lot on circumstance and presentation, so we'd want to know more information about this character before making any kind of judgment call in that area.
However, in general, our policy has to do with avoiding overlap between characters that could be appable. Since we allow Lesser Background characters and characters with headcanon-heavy backstory, we wouldn't want someone to essentially take up two character slots with one character. If the character in question could stand on their own and could plausibly be apped in individually, that's usually the line we draw.
A good example of this policy at work in-game would be in the character of Tim Wright, who does have a secondary consciousness that emerges when he's in a dissociative state. However, this secondary consciousness would not be able to be apped on their own, and thus they were essentially apped in with him.
Hopefully that helps! Please let us know if you have any other questions, or if you want to give us more specifics on the potential situation!
