It can't be known - at least, not yet. My guess would be there's probably creatures very much *like* us, due to an amazing string of coincidences in their development - warm blooded, hair, two eyes, etc. - but the only humans are on Earth.
Considering the fact most living things on earth have globally the same configuration (such as head, eyes, nose, ears, mouth, legs, feet), it isn't unthinkable this configuration also exists on other planets.
It just remains a matter of odds. How big is the odd living things evolve from lifeless stuff? Say it only happens once in a trillion years, then we are alone. Could it happen once a billion year, then we are still as good as alone, since there would be only about 15 intelligent races across the ENTIRE universe. We would never find them. If the odds are better, a fact that still has to be proven, then it's possible humanoid species can be found elsewhere.
Do you mean in parallel universes or are you talking about life on other galaxies or solar systems? Either way, we don't know, although if they did exist I wouldn't expect them to look much like us. And if the beings you are talking about are not from Earth, they would be by definition aliens no matter what they looked like (the term "alien" refers to any extraterrestrial life).
I have heard a multiverse theory that says there could be infinite universes that started the same so ther must be some the same as ours but I do not think this ia true as I think each universe has an infinity of futures so I think 'no'

1. There is only ONE Universe.
2. Humans evolved on Earth. Life on other planets will have evolved differently.

Considering the size of the universe I would say there is life out there somewhere.
Nobody knows yet but that is what the space programs are trying to accomplish, to find sources of life outside of earth.
I don't recollect humans being any farther than the moon to see. Have you?
