Absolutely: there are many possibilities. The only issue is that as the cross-bedding is often not on a massive scale, this may cause graded bedding to become unnoticeable. It is clearer in a rock with only graded bedding. As the beds are often quite shallow, grading is often unnoticeable, yet it still may exist on a slight scale.
I don't see why not, cross bedding just shows a current ripple, it seems entirely plausible that gravity settling could have occured on a small scale in the same bed.

Layers or beds / bedding are other names for strata in geology.
Sedimentary rocks are often deposited in layers as strata. The feature that tells how a sedimentary rock is layered is called the bedding.
first is erosion cause it wears away the land in the particular layer second is folding of strata and third is faulting of bedding plane forth is tectonic moment
A geologic map or geological map is a special-purpose map made to show geological features. Rock units or geologic strata are shown by color or symbols to indicate where they are exposed at the surface. Bedding planes and structural features such as faults, folds, foliations, and lineations are shown with strike and dip or trend and plunge symbols which give these features' three-dimensional orientations.Stratigraphic contour lines may be used to illustrate the surface of a selected stratum illustrating the subsurface topographic trends of the strata. Isopach maps detail the variations in thickness of stratigraphic units. It is not always possible to properly show this when the strata are extremely fractured, mixed, in some discontinuities, or where they are otherwise disturbed.
It is called sedimentation.

A bedding plane is a geological term for the planar surface between adjacent strata.
Tilted strata lie below the unconformity; bedding in younger strata above is parallel to the unconformity.
A bedding plane is the area of separation between rock strata made by a cyclical or situational deposition of sediment. Bedding planes are originally parallel to the horizon, but the strata inclination can be altered by crust moving events.
Tilted strata lie below the unconformity; bedding in younger strata above is parallel to the unconformity.

Graded bedding is a sediment deposit characterized by coarse sediments at its base, which grade upward into progressively finer ones. Graded beds generally represent depositional environments which decrease in transport energy as time passes, but also form during rapid depositional events. They are perhaps best represented in turbidite strata, where they indicate a sudden strong current that deposits heavy, coarse sediments first, with finer ones following as the current weakens. They can also form in terrestrial stream deposits.
