the combination of two or more firms involved in different stages of producing the same good or service
Yes.. Because they both are in the same field. As per the defenitions the copanies in the same field join together is called vertical merger.
A real life example of a vertical merger would be the merger of DoubleClick (a web advertising information company) with Google (the largest web search company). However, this could be seen as just an acquisition (Google paid shareholders $3.1 billion USD).

Conglomerate is a merger between firms that are involved in totally unrelated business activities. A vertical merger is a merger between firms that exist in the same supply chain, while a horizontal merger is a merger between firms in the same industry.
A horizontal merger combines two firms in the same market. A vertical merger combines two firms involved in different stages. A conglomerate combines two firms that produce unrelated goods or services. Pretty much they all combine two firms or more but in different ways.

A Vertical Merger is a company merger that involves the union of a customer with a vendor. The two companies involved in the merger produce different but complimentary products. The vertical merger can also take place as a means of combining assets to capture a sector of the market that either company could manage on their own.

Vertical Merger
Horizontal Merger A horizontal merger is a merger between two competitors. Suppose, for example, that tomorrow Nokia were to buy Sony ericsson. This would be a horizontal merger. Vertical Merger A vertical merger occurs when a supplier buys a reseller, or vice versa. The key point is that the two companies have a buyer-seller relationship. Suppose that a food retailer purchased a company that manufactures food. This would be a vertical merger. Or, suppose that a pharmaceutical company acquired a drugstore chain. Vertical mergers are more likely to be approved by regulatory authorities. Consumers can benefit from the increased efficiencies that result from supply chain integration--- often in the form of lower prices and/or better service. Conglomerate Merger A conglomerate merger is a union of two companies that a.) are not competitors, and b.) not part of the same supply chain. If Oracle were to purchase a fast food chain, this would be a conglomerate merger. Software has no relationship to fast food; fast food has no connection to software (other than providing sustenance for programmers who work long hours.)
