Sure it can. Sweet and sour refer to taste. Many foods have several different kinds of stimuli - some may stimulate the sweet taste buds, some will stimulate the sour ones - thus it can have both sweet and sour flavors. Hot and cold are not related to taste.

No,no!hot and cold refer to temperature & are on opposite ends of the scale,while sweet & sour refer to taste,bitter is another type of taste.Sweet & sour have lived together harmoniously for ages,they stimulate different taste buds in different parts of the tongue,they have no quarrel with each other.Try it sometime,i'm sure you will like it

The taste receptors for sweet and those for sour are on different parts of the tongue. You taste sweet on the tip of your tongue and sour at the edges towards the throat. This is why you can taste them simultaniously and they do not cancel each other out.
