STDs travel together: Yes, it is possible. Hpv and chlamydia are both very common sexually transmitted diseases. It is not at all uncommon for a person to have, carry, or contract more than one std at the same time. Anyone found to have one std should be tested for other stds. Both hpv and chlamydia can be present for long periods without symptoms.

Yes: Chlamydia is a common sexually transmitted bacterial disease that can infect both men and women while hpv (human papilloma virus) is an extremely common sexually transmitted viral disease that can infect both men and women. Clearly your partner, his ex, and you are all sexually active. To be more definitive in answering your question, we would need to know if any used barriers during sex.
