Welcome to the PF.

What is the context of your question? Have you seen something in a science book or journal that suggests that this can happen? Under what conditions?

 

[Baluncore]

Interaction between two independent waves can only occur if the common environment they are propagating through is non-linear. Non-linearity means that the characteristics of the material are modified by the presence of other waves. Non-linearity is common in crystals, but free space is linear.
