Most likely, yes. Did you know that there's a breed called a Beefalo? This breed is a result of breeding an American bison with a domestic cow. So if an American bison can be bred with a domestic bovine and produce viable offspring, then there's nothing wrong with breeding an African Buffalo with a domesticated cow. Make sure, though, that you breed an African Buffalo cow with a domestic-bred bull that has good calving-ease numbers.
