It creates a lunar eclipse.
Yes, the sun can be between the moon and Earth during a lunar eclipse. In this event, the Earth comes directly between the sun and the moon, blocking the sun's light from reaching the moon. However, the sun is never physically located between the two; instead, it is the Earth's position that creates the alignment necessary for this phenomenon.
When the sun, moon, and Earth are in a line, it creates either a lunar or solar eclipse, depending on the position of the moon. During a lunar eclipse, the Earth is between the sun and the moon, casting a shadow on the moon. During a solar eclipse, the moon is between the sun and the Earth, blocking the sunlight from reaching the Earth.
A solar eclipse happens when the moon comes between the sun and the earth$$$
A new moon occurs when the Moon is positioned between the Earth and the Sun, with the Sun's light illuminating the side of the Moon facing away from Earth. This alignment creates a moon that is not visible from Earth.
The term for when the moon passes between the earth and the sun, blocking out light from the sun, is a solar eclipse. This creates a temporary shadow on Earth.
The sun can sometimes be behind the moon, it depends on where the moon, earth and sun are relative to each other.
When the Moon passes between Sun and Earth, the lunar shadow is seen as a solar eclipse on Earth. When Earth passes directly between Sun and Moon, its shadow creates a lunar eclipse. Lunar eclipses can only happen when the Moon is opposite the Sun in the sky, a monthly occurrence we know as a full Moon.

When the Earth is between the Moon and the Sun you get a full moon, not a new Moon which occurs when the Moon is between the Earth and the Sun. You could also get a Lunar eclipse.
An eclipse of the sun throws the shadow of the moon onto Earth.
The Sun is NEVER between the Earth and the Moon. When the Moon is between the Earth and the Sun, this is called a Solar Eclipse. When the Earth is between the Moon and the Sun, this is called a Lunar Eclipse.
