Why not? People didn't expect Bugs Bunny to appear in the same cartoon/film as Mickey Mouse. But it happened. Once.
Here's a picture of Morecambe & Wise with Ronnie Barker:

I don't know what the programme was, unless it was one of those "announcing the new seasons of programmes on the BBC" sort of things.
Thanks for the link. I had read Ronnie Barker and Eric Morecambe were good friends. I watched The Two Ronnies in the late 80s, although it's the 22 years of The Two Ronnies compilations I remember better. Morecambe and Wise were before my time, I personally don't think they were as funny.
Whenever the BBC show Morecambe and Wise it's always the same old sketches like those with famous actors, Eric and Ernie in bed and Eric making fun of Des O'Connor. I looked on YouTube out of curiosity to see if there were any different Morecambe and Wise sketches and there was one where they were taking off Starsky and Hutch. It seems these compilation programmes don't represent all the types of sketches they did.
1980 film Rubbish Tips with The Two Ronnies
I can imagine The Two Ronnies and Eric and Ernie appearing separately as I would never have expected both duos to appear together
