Yes they can.

Both blood groups and Rh factor holds two places. We see it in the AB blood group. The O blood group is OO. For A and B blood groups, the second place can be held by an O or A/B. So it can be BB/BO, AA/AO.

Just as with chromosomes, (X/Y) each parent gives one of their alleles to the child. If the child is born with A blood type, this would mean the Mother had BO blood type.

Now it's a matter of mix and match.

Mother gives B Father gives A Child will be AB.

Mother B Father B Child B

Mother O Father A Child A

Mother O Father B Child B

The Rh factor is the same principle. It also has two places. If both parents are Pos but the child is Neg, this means that both parents had to have an Rh factor +-.

Mix and match as above to see this.

I wouldn't be surprised if one of the grandparents was Rh Neg.

I hope this helps answer your question.
