No, this does not make any sense due to the way cyclones and anticyclones are defined. Ultimately, a cyclone is just an area of lower atmospheric pressure while an anticyclone is an area of higher pressure. They can get closer to each other, in which case the pressure gradient will become tighter and the wind will blow stronger (wind is primarily generated by this force). But they would never be able to collide because they are just regions of differing pressure and atmospheric thickness.

They often complement each other - e.g. an anticyclone often moves behind a departing cyclone, bringing in cooler air initially with its change in wind direction.
