Yes, normally in a 24 hour day there are 2 high and 2 low tides. I think that what you are asking might be can there be a high tide and then at the change of tide, a second high tide instead of a low. that answer is also yes. I do a lot of recreational fishing in salt water and have experienced it several times, although mostly 2 consecutive low tides. Tides are caused by the gravitational pull of the moon but can also be severly affected by wind. such as strong east wind blowing water out on low tide, then continuing to blow it out when tide is supposed to be coming in (high tide).
