Best Answer

Yes. It is physically possible to answer a question with a question.

Related Information:

However; unless you are using the question for clarification (with the intent of giving a proper answer afterwards) or to prompt the person to find their own answer to something they should already know; it is not very productive to do so.

Further, a question/answer can never answer a question completely. Although, the question/answer can be structured in a way that minimizes ambiguity, it can never be free of ambiguity. A statement/answer can be. This is why, in law, to answer with a question is ruled unresponsive, and never accepted.

Rhetorical Questions :

A question can be answered implicitly, with varying degrees of ambiguity, by a rhetorical question (a question to which the answer is implied or known). This has been used as a mild rebuke in answers such as "Well, what do you think?" or "Why else would I say that?" or "Do you think I'm stupid?" However, the rebuke is generally not part of the answer and is not usually helpful in communicating the information requested by the question.
