Could a gas giant have two earth sized moons in binary orbit around it

+0
−0

I'm trying to create a system where a gas giant has two moons in binary orbit with each other. I'm trying to get that James Cameron look with the gas giant on the horizon, but also have a equally sized moon there two. I don't like the idea of a horse shoe orbit as that would mean the other moon would be not in view for months to years at a time. Would a gas giant with a pair of earth sized moons in binary orbit be possible. If so what would be some complications with such system.
