Default doubling head gasket question

i was looking to buy an a4 b7 with with a 1.8t.
blown head gasket..
in the event that the head is warped, and needs to be straightened
is it possible to double the head gasket to compensate for the height lost on
the cylinder head?

i ask because i've seen a head job where the valves slammed into the pistons

They are usually warped. They have a machine limit. If they need machined, and are in limit they work fine. If its really a B7 its a 2.0T. And No you cannot use two head gaskets.
