You could, but it is not very likely for a human to have more than one type of flu virus at the same time. Although not well understood yet, it is noted that many times there is a prevalent flu virus in a region, and for some reason, it seems to prevent another virus from getting a foothold at the same time. To be strictly correct in the answer to your question, the answer would really be yes...because Swine Flu is also a Type A Influenza, so if you have Swine Flu, you have Type A flu. But there are many different Type A flu viruses, and as said above, usually a person gets one type or another, not both.
