There is no magsafe for iPhone. You can connect both together if you use a lightning to USB camera adapter and a lightning to USB cable.
There might be third party accessories maker who can detachable lightning adapter that magnetically connect to the cable on the other end though.

Yep, this is a textbook example of why it's a bad idea to use the same feature name for two entirely different implementations.
As for the OP: what exactly are you trying to accomplish? Just seeing if two iPhones will physically stick to each other? They almost certainly won't be able to charge each other (which one would charge which, for starters?).

Yep, just stick to each other. No charging or data transfer. Just magnetically attach to each other.
Opposite magnetic poles stick to each other (north to south). The same poles will not. Therefore, two iPhones should not stick together.
But no one has ever successfully made a unipolar magnet. iPhones contain an array of north and south.
