Yellow can be mixed with the colors on each side of yellow on the color wheel - orange and green, but beware - it will be a very dull yellow, and probably darker in value than you want.

This is why, in painting, yellow is a primary color. It is a very intense color of very light value. The colors you would try to mix it from - orange and green - are both darker in value and less intense. This is why the resulting mix is darker and duller than primary yellow. So if you want a light, bright yellow, you won't be able to mix it using paint.
