congruent means equivalent. An equilateral triangle has 3 of the same sides, not two. Isosceles triangles can have 2 or 3 of the same length sides. Congruent isosceles triangles are impossible.
I agree with most of the above answer but not the last sentence. It is possible to have congruent isosceles triangles. If the legs (sides) of triangle 1 are the same length as the legs of triangle 2, and the bases (third side) of the two triangles are the same length then the two isosceles triangles will be congruent.
So the answer to the question is: yes, a congruent triangle can have two same length sides.
