Yes and no. First the "no" part: as long as your grandmother is alive the voucher is hers and cannot be transferred to anyone else. Now the "yes" part: If you've been legally living with her and you qualify for a voucher you may be able to inherit her voucher if she were to die or be forced to live in a nursing home or similar institution. To qualify for a voucher you must be disabled yourself and must have been living with your grandmother to the extent that your name must be on her lease.

Is section 8 only for apartments or can I apply for a section 8 house?
Your section 8 voucher is accepted for any kind of dwelling, so long as as the number of bedrooms specified on your voucher. Most apartments have one or two bedrooms, while most houses have three or more bedrooms.
Can you apply for section 8 twice?
Yes, and many people do this for valid reasons. They may find it difficult to port their original voucher to the new jurisdiction, so it is not uncommon for voucher holders to have their names on the waiting list in other jurisdictions where they can jump to that jurisdiction and use its voucher as opposed to porting their original voucher. You might want to check with that Housing Authority to see if you can use your original voucher to port over to them: they may absorb the cost. If you do apply for the Housing Choice Voucher Program (HCVP, formerly the Section 8 Program) anywhere, while you already are in another, you will need to give up the voucher of the old program first. I highly suggest you talk this over with your original Housing Authority as they can help you better through this means.
