Sounds like a fun idea, but I can't imagine sitting there for an hour watching another player play for you would be all that engaging. Especially if you get a few bad coin flips in a row, oops, now you don't get to make any decisions for 3 hours.
What if one player kept whispering in the other's ear?
Even worse it's an hour of ingame time, which can be over in five seconds in the real world or almost an entire session depending on what you're doing. I would think flipping every session would be a better chance at making this work
I think you could add a constitution saving throw against suggestions from the other voice in your head to keep things engaging.
Surely that would be a charisma save, possession is like the only use for charisma saves!
