Yes, by the use of electo-mechanicsl switches. any train can use another's tracks as long as the tracks and wheels are compatible to one another..

A further answer

The above answer is insufficient because it does not explain anything about how the operating safety of the railroad / railway system is ensured!

Any public rail system has to have proper safety signalling and protection circuits to stop a train from crossing to another track at a railway junction by accident.

To avoid collisions, very great care has to be taken by the operators of public rail systems to ensure that no such crossover can take place unless the other track is clear of any other trains.
