Answer: No .

Step-by-step explanation:

There are special cases where a person can use right and left hand equally well . I.e ambidextrous .

In statistical terms and probability theory, two events (or propositions) are mutually exclusive or disjoint if they cannot both occur at the same time .however in this case it may occur that the person is right and left handed at the same time .
