Yes, you will need separate lawyers unless you can find a lawyer willing to represent you both and, if you do find such a lawyer, he or she will require you each to sign a 'conflict waiver'. There is still a risk that at some point a true conflict could arise, and then the lawyer could no longer represent either one of you, and you'd both have to start over with new lawyers.
