I am on my husband's Apple ID and would like to start my own. Will I lose all my apps/data? Can we do family sharing?

You can take steps to not lose your apps and data by taking these steps and using Family Share.

You will completely sign out of the Apple ID for iCloud and Media/iTunes Purchases on all your devices and choose the option to keep content on the device, if asked. Then you will create your own Apple ID and sign into it and turn on your preferred iCloud options again.

Lastly, you'll use your husband's Apple ID to set up and send a Family Share invite to your new ID. Set up Family Sharing - Apple Support
