It's actually pretty normal and can work really well.
Especially if the HTML person also did the graphic design and KNOWS how to
make it work as a web page.
We let them build HTML files, which are then turned into Smarty templates
with the necessary blocks of Smarty code to work through whatever PHP hands
to the template.
The PHP app developer can then focus on the application logic...with the
app's output going to the appropriate Smarty template.
It's a pretty good system compared to the one person doing everything model
that I worked under for a long time.
Even a one person team can use that approach by separating the tasks and
then maintaining discipline to work on the separate tasks, separately.

is coding HTML pages and you're somewhere else doing the PHP work? Or is
that some academic's view of the way things *should* be done?
