No ,
That is how batteries are wired in series to increase voltage
ie; 1 battery meter reading from positive and negative 12 volts.
now 2 batteries 12 volts each with a wire from battery A positive to battery B negative,the meter reading from A negative and B positive will be 24 volts .
-+-+=24
hope this help

No.
1.There is no circuit.
2.Even two lantern batteries together are not powerful enough
to give much of a shock.
If you then connected the other terminals in some manner
you might get current to flow,
maybe a spark, but sorry, no shock.

Probably not, no more so then touching the terminals of the battery itself.
If you'd like a shock, take a wire from the positive and another wire from the negative and press them to your -well, someplace where there's just a wee bit of your flesh.
I confess to some morbid curiosity about what prompted this question.

Not if the batteries are low volts (6 or 12) and there are only 2 connected together. Other than that, the question is kind of vague.

If your speaking of standard house hold batteries I doubt it, but your not doing much good to your batteries.

Can not be done.
