Can the yield on a 3-year treasury bond exceed the yield on a 10-year treasury bond?

Yes, three different situations that I can think of: The 3-year and 10-year notes were issued on the same day, then the yield curve was inverted and short term rates were higher than long term rates. If the 3-year and 10-year notes were issued at different times, at the time the 3-year treasury note was issued, prevailing 3-year interest rates were higher than the 10-year rates at the time the 10-year was issued. If for some reason, the market vastly prefers 10-year terms over 3-year terms, and bids up the price of 10-year notes much higher than 3-year notes. This would depress the yield on 10-year notes, possibly below that of 3-year notes.

The yield of a bond is the interest that it pays (annualized) divided by the purchase price of the bond (taking into account any discount or premium on the price).
