How many lands should be in a 5 color commander deck?

In short, no, you don't necessarily need more lands for a 4- or 5-color deck. You're probably running about 37 to 38 lands already and that's a pretty good average for any deck. I'd bump that up a little bit to 38 to 40 just to be sure you've got enough lands of each color to draw.

How should commander deck be structured?
There are no hard-and-fast rules for building a Commander deck, apart from the singleton nature and a list of banned cards, like any other Magic: The Gathering format. The average deck should have somewhere between 34-42 lands, depending on its level of mana ramp, and its synergy with lands specifically.

Can a commander deck have two commanders?
A player can have two commanders if both have partner. Because both commanders start the game in the command zone, the remaining library is only 98 cards. Your two commanders are treated individually for all other Commander rules. If either leaves the battlefield, you can return it to the command zone instead.

Can you play planeswalkers in a commander deck?
Since these planeswalkers begin as legendary creatures, they are able to be your commander. With these commanders, players are not able to cast the planeswalker from the command zone. You will have to cast the legendary creature, then pay its transformation cost to flip the card.
