This fellow on YouTube that you mention sounds like a member here and if you have the size of pond that he has then yes they can be kept together.

I would be hesitant because arowana and koi require different temperatures. While there is some overlap you could not give both species ideal temperature ranges because it is tropical vs coldwater species. You would have to keep koi to the hard part of the warm water end and arowana to the cold spectrum, and neither is ideal for long term care.
