Yes but as you garden the word but will appear more often then not.
Daffodils and tulips can co-exist nicely in the garden. The but part comes with flowering time and color.
Both flowers come in a myriad of colors and can bloom at the same time or different times. This depends on how long you want the flowering season to last but both are cool weather plants and both only have a small window in the spring to flower.
The old tale about daffodils and tulips comes mostly from the fact that squirels, voles and other critters find tulips to be a great food source. That makes people think they cannot co-exist but the truth is they are being eaten.
Daffodils on the other hand are toxic to squirels and voles. That is why daffodils always seem to come up and the tulips don't.
There is not much you can do about the wildlife. So i suggest less tulips and more daffodils. When you see an area that has a lot of tulips someone has gone through a lot of trouble to prevent the above problems.
Good Luck

Why did your daffodils change from yellow to white over the years?
Many flowers like tulips, daffodils and glads were once white and the breeders crossed them to give color. In time the bulbs become old and may revert back to white. Also there is a white daffodil so if you have stored the bulbs altogether they will all become white. Here's a good idea I came up with. I use to get so frustrated because I'd have to wait for my daffodils and tulips to stop blooming, wait for the leaves to die off before I could plant my summer flowers. I came up with the idea of getting a 10" pot and I would put 3 - 4 bulbs in each pot and then bury it where I wanted it. When the daffodils and tulips were finished I simply lifted the pot right of the ground and put them on the bench in the back of our yard to die off and I was able to get my summer planting done earlier.
