Not in game. Maybe if there is a prequel from before they got married then he could do it all over again.

I like the idea behind the romance(you can pair up character together) and hope that we will see it again in the future.
Maybe in something like loren where you can also pair up your party member together,like in the fire emblem series.
I wish we could pair up guys together in fire emblem fates

Doing like in Fire Emblem would be possible, assuming you're fine waiting 5-6 years for the game

Seriously you can't have a lot of romances and gameplay and hope that small teams like mine can release the game in a year or two

5-6 years, OK I'll be waiting
seriously I don't want fire emblem from you, I just used it has an exemple to say that I like game where you can pair up character together, like this game, you're not one of the sister, you control the all groupe and choose with who each sister end up.

Not relatd to QoT but wasn't it confirmed that you will have one gay and one lesbian option in Fates?, at least that's what I read.
Also I am super fine with the Ramas x Dora subplot in Loren it was really cute ♥

yes zero and shara they aren't gay but bi they can only be in a same-sex relationship with the avatar, that was a last minute addition and the way it the same sex relationship was done is...not really good
fire emblem romance isn't only about the avatar and his/her lover but also between member of your army,
The romance system of the japonese version of fire emblem is build like this:
-there is 68 playable characters in the game.
-your avatar can marry any opposite sex member of your army, except Kanna who is always the avatar's children , so if you are playing a male avatar you can romance one of the 33 girls(34 when the anna DLC will be out) and if you play a female avatar you can romance one of the 33 guy.
-1 of the 33 guy(zero) and 1 of the 33 girl(shara) can be romance with regardless of the avatar's gender.
-19 of guys and 19 of the girls are 1st gen character,the 1st gen is divided in 3 category, the shared characters(3guy +3girls) , the norh character(8 guys+8girls) and the hoshido charactesrs (8guys+ 8girls).
-the 1st gen shared characters can marry any opposite sex 1st gen characters.
-the 1st gen nohr characters can marry any opposite sex 1st gen shared and nohr characters + 2 specific hoshido characters.
-the 1st gen hoshido characters can marry any opposite sex 1st gen shared and hoshido characters + 2 specific nohr characters.
-11 of guys and 11 of the girls are 2nd gen character,the 2nd gen is divided in 3 category, the shared characters'(3guys+3girls) , the norh character(4guys+4girls) and the hoshido character(4guys+4girls).
-the 2nd gen shared characters can marry any opposite sex 2nd gen characters.
-the 2nd gen nohr characters can marry any opposite sex 2nd gen shared and nohr characters + 2 specific hoshido characters.
-the 2nd gen hoshido characters can marry any opposite sex 2nd gen shared and hoshido characters + 2 specific nohr characters.
then you have 7 characters(8 with the futur anna) who can only marry a opposite sex avatar.
we have a total of 398 different paring ,actually 389 because a few character can't marry each other because they are sibling or because they can't be in the your party at the same time.
387 of those paring are straight relationship, 1 of them is a gay relationship and 1 is a lesbian relationship.
One of the problem with the bi characters is that they aren't shared characters, zero is a 1st gen nohr and shara is 2nd gen hoshido so they are version lock, that is why some people jock by calling the conquest version the gay version and the birthright version the lesbian version.
the 2nd problem is that we have 2nd gen nohr girl who is bi with a strong preference for woman but cannot marry a female avatar(but she can marry a male one)
the 3rd is that you are punish from a gameplay POV if you are in a gay relationship because you can't get their children, a female avatar who marry zero will have a male kanna and eponine as children but if you marry him has a male you lose those 2 characters, if you marry shara has a man you get female kanna but if you marry her has a female you lose kanna.
Their are some chance that will see change in the US and EU version because of the scandal the game got so maybe it won't be so bad when it will arrive in the west.

Oh, I can see your point now, as I sad in the SOTW forum, I'm accustomed to count my blessings when developers other than Jack and Bioware include gay romance path in their games, Nintendo specially. LOL

Add into all of that, you have 8 siblings (who technically are not your siblings, but are treated like it every step of the game and which the plot revolves around being your siblings) who you can romance, 4 in each version. Actually why I am not getting the game. I do not want to deal with that in my media.
I usually just stick to Jack and Bioware for the same reason, lol.
What are the personalities like of the romanceable characters?

You'll find out about them in Jack's blog. I've already sent him character profiles and they'll be posted one at a time over the coming months to whet your appetite.

Probably after the Summer In Trigue ones, I suspect, but I don't know that for sure.
