No. Rats and mice are a completely differentiated species of rodentia. Firstly, rats fundamentally hate mice and will kill and eat them if they come into contact. Secondly, even when natural breeding is unecessary, numerous laboratory studies have attempted to cross breed rats and mice artificially and have failed using: invitro, embryonic chimera and other fertilization procedures.
