“Two mouses” is incorrect. Correct form is “two mice.”
But, the popular idiom “two mouses” is used to mean two people or things. So it is used to refer two people as in “Harry and Megan are two mouses”. It is also used to refer two things as in “She is a film maker and a painter, two mouses in one mouse-trap”.
