Can you use a utility bill in joint names to satisfy ID requirements for anti-moneylaundering?

For example;
a virgin media (or electricity) account in the names of "Joe & Jane Smith" can both Joe and Jane use this utility bill for their separate ID requirements?
 
Yes, you should be able to but each institution determines its own rules so just check with them first as some are a bit unnecessarily zealous about this sort of thing.
 
Scan the document into pdf form (unless you already have a pdf version) and edit the name ?

Can't understand how these documents are acceptable - but maybe the institutions call the utility and check the name versus the utility account number independently ? Doubt it somehow.

Why would anyone forge a document when what has been described is likely to suffice?
