Grafting sex... [botany]

[Externet]

Good day all.

A male and female pair of nearby trees that need each other to produce fruit by pollination have both two main branches.  If one branch is removed on each tree and swap-grafted with the other sex branch; will it work as if there were two self-serving separate trees ?

Seen 'salad' trees multi-grafted to produce varieties of -say peaches- but never read anything like what am asking...🤨

Apparently, you can but it depends on the species  as not all are amenable to the technique.
