No, you are not eligible to take a deduction for the self-employed health insurance premium if you are eligible to participate in a health insurance plan offered by either your husband's employers or your employers. It does not matter that you elected not to participate in these health insurance plans, as long as you had the option to.  The prior answer is incomplete.

Yes, you can claim self-employment health insurance premiums if the policy is in your husband's name and only up the amount of his self-employment profit.
