No. It is not possible to see the moon in the middle of the day. In the middle of the day, the moon, would be on the opposite side of the earth, because it is night on the opposite side of the earth. What you are seeing is the planet Venus. It is grayish and easily mistaken for the moon. It is called the morning or evening star because it comes out before sunset, and after sunrise, but on some days, it will come out in the middle of the day for an hour or two.

What does the moon do after a full moon?
It wanes to become the Last Quarter and then it becomes the next New Moon. The Moon orbits the Earth approximately once every 28 or 29 days. At day '1' it is a New Moon. (Possible Solar Eclipse) At day '7' it is in First Quarter. (Seen as a half Moon shape in the evening) Ar day '14' it is at Full Moon ( Seen completely round and bright at night. Possible Lunar Eclipse). Ar day '21' it is at Last Quarter. (Seen as a half Moon shape in the morning). At day 28/29 it is at New Moon gain ( to repeat the next orbit). From day '1' to day '14' it is in the WAXING phase. From day '14' to day '28/29' it is in the WANING phase). From day '21' through day '1' to day '7' it is CRESCENT shaped. From day '7' through day '14' to day '21' it is GIBBOUS shaped. The plane of the Moon's orbit about the Earth is angled at about 5 degrees to the plane of the Earth's orbit about the Sun. This is the reason why at a given phase point it may appear to be higher/lower in sky than at the same point in its previous orbit. The Moon makes 13 orbits about the Earth in one Year. The Earth and the Moon follow a mean orvital track about the Sun. However, because the Moon is so large and near to Earth, it pulls the Earth in and out of this mean track. We can think of the Earth and Moon 'dancing' through space. The old lore in England; In very clear weather sometimes you see the crescent Moon, with the 'ghost' of the full circle of the Moon. It is said of as being the New Moon with the Old Moon in her arms'.
Can you see a full moon in the middle of the day or a new moon in the middle of the night?
Neither one.
Is it possible to have a new moon and a full moon in the same day?
No. The position the Moon has to be in for a full Moon is completely different than for a new moon. When we have a full Moon the Moon is on the opposite side of us to the Sun. When we have a new Moon, the Moon is on the same side of us as the Sun. It takes about 2 weeks for the Moon to go between those two positions, so it is not possible for it to happen on the same day.
