If you are aware that an individual has an arrest warrant place on him/her and you help this individual in evading the authorities, then yes you can be prosecuted.
You don't have a legal obligation to turn someone in, even if you know they have a warrant for their arrest. However, if you allow that person to live with you and purposely hide them from the police, you can be arrested for harboring a fugitive.
Someone's in trouble!
A warrant is a demand issued by a court. An example is; an arrest warrant is a demand for someone's arrest. A foreign warrant is issued for someone in another country.

I recently got in trouble with the law. How can I find out if I have a warrant for my arrest without contacting the authorities?
No. A warrant is issued by a magistrate or judge.
No. A 'warrant' is not the same as a 'fine.' Someone else can pay a fine for you, but a warrant is for a named individual and the court intends to "see" that individual in person.
If you have a warrant, the best thing to do is to just turn yourself in. This will keep you from getting in more trouble in the event that you get caught by the police.
You're probably thinking about when people talk about harboring a fugitive. If the person has warrants for something like an unpaid speeding ticket then no, you can not get into any trouble for living with them.
Police with an arrest warrant can enter the home of the person named in the warrant if they have reasonable grounds to believe he is on the premises. They can search the premises in any place the accused person would be able to hide (they couldn't for example, look in the drawers of a nightstand, because no one could hide there). Police have to get a search warrant to enter the house of a person other than the one named in the arrest warrant.
