Not a spark, which is either an electrical discharge or a hot flying particle, as from striking flint. Intersecting laser beams are sometimes used to produce extreme temperatures, such as in fusion experiments.

Interesting question, I suppose you could use a strong enough laser to ionize the air which could result in a spark or ball lightning. However you would not need 2 beams, just one.

No. Beams of light are pure energy and are not matter. A spark results from extremely hot matter combusting. Althought there is matter in air, the beams of light will not heat it.

there is a way to make molecules collide and cause an electric reaction...you need an airtight glass tube and two batterries...but it's really hard to do we did it in chem lab...don't worry im not a mega smart nerd...just learned about it in chemistry and thought you could maybe look it up and try it
