Yes, the Terms and Conditions of the U.K.-based Amex Companion Voucher require Household Account members to select a companion from within the Household Account:
"Members can choose to take anyone as a Companion on their Companion Voucher booking except if the member is part of a Household Account. In such an instance, the companion must also belong to the Household Account."
However, the rule doesn't apply to the U.S.-based Chase Companion Voucher, officially known as the "Travel Together Ticket." In that instance, the member of a Household Account can select anyone as the companion:
"Companions do not have to be named within a BA Executive Club Household Account. Members can choose to take anyone as a Companion on their redemption voucher booking."
