Answer:

If they can be the same fraction, like 2/3 + 2/3, then yes. If they can have different denominators, like 4/5 + 1/2, then yes. Any other way is no.

Explanation:

The same fraction (2/3 + 2/3) will equal 4/3, which is more than 1.

Different denominators (4/5 + 1/2) will equal 13/10, which is more than 1.

Nd if I'm wrong, my bad. I really tried.
