1. No, from the instructions

"

You need two references for your passport renewal or new applications. Your references must:
  • have known you for at least:
    • two years for passport applications
    • six months for Certificate of Identity or Refugee Travel Document applications
  • not be your guarantor
  • not be a family member
  • be 18 years of age or older
  • agree to you using their name and contact information for your application

Family members who can't be a reference for your application
This includes your:
spouse or common-law partner
