Yes it can be. Depends on the situation. For instance a natural response to this question is to say “What particularly do you have in mind as an example?”

Do put in more details.

I know Quora has removed the option to add question details, but you can put in details in a comment and then link to the comment as the “question source”. To get a link to the comment, look for the date or time below your name after you post it.

I can think of a number of other ways it could happen.

E.g.: “What should I say in such and such a situation?” - the best answer might be “Ask a question such as …”

Or, if it is a question in algebra, say, someone might ask a question back so as to encourage them to think about the problem rather than just learn a solution parrot fashion.

Other answers might give the full solution, but the ones with questions can be interesting to read, help you understand the problem more deeply.

Probably lots of other ways.
