I have two homey in my house! Is it possible to have the same device in both of homeys but only flows in one of them? Or will it crash?

No, this does not work between two Homeys. If you export the devices from Homey 1 to Home Assistant and then back to Homey 2, then it works.  
Homey 1 - export devices via MQTT to Home Assistant  
Homey 2 - import devices via Home Assistant App

What type of device? Zigbee/Z-Wave can only be paired with one controller/Homey so you can only achieve “shared” devices of that type using workarounds (like the aforementioned route via Home Assistant).

Homey itself does not have any options to share devices between multiple Homey’s.

Do you know if webhooks will do the job? From homey to homey flows?

Partial. You can switch e.g. Pugs or similar with an internal/or external WebHook. However, you then need 2 webhooks. 1x on, 1x off. With WebHooks but data such as temperature looks like this:

In this case, the content of the variable “cloudiness” is sent to another Homey via an internal WebHook and displayed there with a LaMetric.
