Buy another PC (dedicated streaming server). Install NDI plugin on it and OBS Studio. It will be the NDI server and do x264 encoding.
On your computer and your friends computer, install OBS Studio and NDI plugin. These will be NDI clients.
Connect all computers with fast gig switch and Cat 6 Ethernet.
On the streaming server, you setup OBS Studio and create two NDI sources that you place into a scene. Each source would be layed out to fill the entire screen or you can split them so that both of you can be seen. You toggle the hide/show state of each NDI source to go "live" or go offline. Just click the eye icon to control.

You don't have to have a third PC. You can have one machine run a game, run OBS and send NDI, and the other run a game, receive that NDI feed, and composite them and stream. (This should be the stronger of the two). You'll likely want an external device to switch scenes.

OBS-Websocket is a plugin that will let you use a web browser on another device on the same network (tablet, phone, another PC) to switch scenes in OBS.

You install the module according to its instructions. You then open a web browser on another device on the same network, and navigate to this page:
http://t2t2.github.io/obs-tablet-remote/
And enter the IP address on your local network of the machine running OBS with the websocket plugin. That web page will present buttons you can use to control OBS functions, including switching scenes.

To do it right, have a 3rd PC to serve as the NDI server.
You will be able to scale out by adding more gaming PCs to the NDI network and centralize administration. On the NDI server, you setup scenes to show all gaming PCs in split layouts and in fullscreen layout if you only want to show one gaming PC live. You choose which scene layout from the NDI server.
In addition, no burden is put on the gaming PCs to do x264 encoding. All they do is pass raw video/audio data over the network to the NDI server to aggregate, process, and push to the ingest server.

So you need to have one pc revive NDI and then just hide it and un hide it when you want it

That's actually not a good idea. You're better off creating separate scenes with all your audio inputs, but each with separate NDI sources, and then switching between scenes. You pay have performance issues with two NDI sources in the same scene, and merely hiding one or covering one with the other may not solve them.
