Is it possible that two prokaryotic organisms show phenotypic similarities but do not share close evolutionary relatedness?

It is possible that two prokaryotic organisms may look alike, phenotypic similarities, but still have major genetic differences, genotypic dissimilarities, that would indicate that they are not closely related. For example if two prokaryotic organisms share 97% of their rRNA gene sequence then they are considered to have the probability of being in the same species. However, even if two prokaryotic organisms share less than 95% of their gene sequence then they will be considered a new species and therefore they would not be related even if 95% of their gene sequences match therefore not sharing close evolutionary relatedness.
