Can someone with mets lung cancer to both lungs survuve fir long with targeted therapies?

No one knows: While it depends in the type of tumor, the fact remains that nobody can predict the future. Odds and percentages are accurate for the group of people with the same disease that came before you, but cannot predict what will happen to an individual. The statistics however can be used to help make decisions, but in the end are just that - statistics. You are an individual.
