Both are acceptable. I've seen both used in all sorts of textbooks. They're just slight spelling variants. I always just go with heme and hemoglobin.

Haem is the British English spelling. I always use haem and haemoglobin. American English uses heme and hemoglobin.

Haem. There's a whole country of people who spell it wrong though.
