For future reference, when booking through nightjet.com, there is an explicit option to book an entire compartment.

This is possible for couchettes and seating carriages as well.

Does that mean we would always be put in separate compartments unless we book the whole Double compartment for ourselves (the €321.80 option on the screenshot below)?

Yes. If the number of travellers coincides with the number of beds in the sleeper compartment, whenever possible (which is almost always in my experiences), they will put travellers in the same compartment. Otherwise, the compartments are gender-separated, and it can happen that a bed is sold out for one gender but not the other due to the gender distribution of already sold tickets.

You are welcome to add a fictitious passenger to accompany you to book the three-person compartment for yourselves, but then you have to pay the ticket price for the fictitious passenger; in some rare circumstances, the discount tickets for three could still be cheaper.

If they put you two in one three-person compartment, they cannot sell the other bed to other passengers who are promised a gender-separated compartment. You would be paying two tickets but getting three beds.
