As per the Indian Partnership Act 1932, Partnership is the relationship between PERSONS who have agreed to share the profits of a business...

I don't think the word 'persons' can be used to refer to any other entities other than Individuals.

In my opinion, the answer to your query: NO.

No a co-operative society can neither be a partnership

the definition of partnership is just and only include persons and c0-operative society is not a person

on the other hand partnership shall be made with 2 or more person weather for co-operative soceity there is an need of atlest 50 persons

It is very clear that co-op society are in form of Aop and AOP can become partner in a firm in its capacity.
