No, that would be destructive interference. One crest + one trough = nothing, a flat line.
The displacement is reduced to the difference.
The crest is the sum of the two.
When two waves interfere, the displacement where two troughs meet is negative.
Negative

Negative
Waves from two sources travel in a medium. At some points when they interfere simultaneously crest and trough of the two waves would meet. So the displacement at that point would be reduced. Hence it is termed as Destructive Interference. If, otherwise, both crests or toughs of the two waves interfere then displacement at those points would be added and hence it becomes maximum. This is termed as Constructive Interference

It can happen any place where two waves meet. This is usually most relevant when both waves have the same frequency.
When the trough of a wave and the crest of a different wave meet, the waves cancel completely. This is called destructive interference.
Constructive interference occurs when the crest of one wave passes through, and adds itself to, the crest of an 'adjacent' wave. This combination is said to be additive. Rogue Waves are actual and can be quite destructive.
When two waves meet, wave interference occurs, causing them both to take on a different shape at the moment they meet.
