Jayyid is generally used for a hadith that is strong, but not sahih, more or less similar to hasan.

As for gharib, it is used for a number of meanings:
1- Narrated with only one chain
2- A certain narrator only narrates it from a certain teacher
3- Meaning is strange
in addition to few other meanings.

It is perfectly possible for a hadith to be jayyid as well as gharib, just as it can be sahih or hasan as well as gharib at the same time.
