I'm not sure what you mean by waves, nor, for that matter, phase! However, here are
-two sine waves, one with an amplitude 0.7 of the other
-two sine waves, one with an amplitude 0.7 of the other and time shifted by 1 cycle/ 2pi
- a composite wave comprising a fundamental and a third harmonic with an amplitude of 0.3 of the fundamental
- a composite wave with 0.7 times the amplitude of the above and both fundamental and third harmonic time shifted by 1 cycle/2pi

If two waves have the same amplitude at all times, they are not just in phase, but are identical.
If two sinewaves are in phase, I can't see where amplitude has any bearing on it.
Maybe two waves of different frequency are sometimes said to be in phase when their combined envelope has a greater amplitude than either wave, or out of phase when the sum is less than either, but I think it is not well defined.
