we have two different transformations
Rigid transformations and non rigid transformations
A rigid transformation produces congruent figures
A no rigid transformation produces similar figures
An example of rigid transformations is (translation, rotation, reflection)
An example of non rigid transformations is the dilation
so
if you have a sequence of transformations: translation-rotation-reflection, the final figure is a congruent figure with the original
If a different sequence is performed as : reflection-translation-rotation, the resulting images are not in the same position. but they are congruent
therefore
the answer is
Yes, they can be congruent
