Yes, it certainly can. There are many simple arrangements to do so. The classic example is the diffused light that passed through a prism, when passed through another prism it is restored to its original characteristics.
IMPROVEMENT:
The aforesaid classic method works only if the second prism is placed in a reverse way (upside-down as compared to the first). What happens is that the white light that gets split in the first prism, de-splits when it passes through the second prism resulting in getting back the original white light.

2nd answer:
You see the result of light refraction every time you see a rainbow. (reflection is involved, too)

∙ 8y agoWhite light consist of all colors, when it's refracted then you will see those different colors.
Look at the rainbow, that the cause of light refraction.

Light that is bent is said to be?
Light that bend called 'refracted' or refraction of light and that turn back is called 'reflected' or rflection of light.
When the refracted light is bent back into the incident material is called a?
total internal refraction
How does incident light emerge from a prism?
Incident light hits a prism, refracted or reflected light emerges from it. In what manner it is different from the incident light depends on the angle of incidence and the angles of the prism. Commonly it may be refracted, dispersed or reflected back.
When light strikes an objects and it bounces b ack is it being refracted?
If the light truly "bounces back", then it is being reflected. Refraction is the bending of electromagnetic waves like light or radio.
When light bounces back at the same in which it hit an object?
When light hits an object/surface, it's either reflected, absorbed, or refracted. For light to bounce back, the reflection has to be "specular", like a mirror. So the light bounces back with the same(reflected) image. For light to be reflected back at the source. The light has to hit perpendicular to the surface, which is 90°.
What happens if a hollow prism is used?
Because there is a hollow space inside the prism, the light would be refracted twice, turning it back to white light.
Is light that gets reflected off a watch a rainbow?
Any light that is refracted forms a rainbow. Based on how the watch is shaped, light may be refracted when transmitted through the display glass of the wristwatch, reflect off of something underneath the screen, and then be refracted as it is transmitted back out of the watch.

How does the speed of light in the fiber compare with the speed of light in the outer covering?
The speed of light in the fibre is greater. As a result, light moving toward the outer covering is refracted back towards the core.

Is a bird looking at a mirror an example of light being refracted?
Nope. That's reflection, where light waves bounce back. Refraction is where they bend, like through a lens.
Can a window refract light?
Yes because at first the light is going through one medium, air, and then it travels through another, the glass window, and then goes back into the air, refracted.
What is the difference between dispersion and reflection?
Dispersion is when light is refracted inside a prism and all the colours are separated because red light refracts less than violet light. Reflection is when light hits an object and bounces back off it.
