I was able to compress my carotids...pretty easily...I kept doing it for some days...it felt really good...the hypoxia...now, when I do it..same spot and everything...all I can do is compress the juglars...maybe I pushed the carotid artery in too deep...I know, sounds stupid...but, I dont know what the hell is going on with my body.
Hard to say why you're not hitting the spot, but no the body doesn't really shift things what way. Are you feeling the pulse in the same place?
This. Maybe try a bit higher or lower on your neck to hit where the common carotid bifurcates.

Yes they can change position. In fact they probably did. The body does amazing things.
That's not really how the vasculature works. You can palpate a vein in your hand or arm, and it may move slightly with pressure, but they stay in the same place. This is why anatomy and surgery work. Everyone's body is overwhelmingly the same, save for some specific genetic differences like situs inversus.
The individual's carotids have not moved. They are in the same place they were yesterday and will be tomorrow.
