Crazy fermentation question

Is it possible to use SCOBY, the liquid part (filtered to remove any solid matter), to "kick start" a sourdough bread starter?
You can try but I'd make sure not to cross-contaminate your cultures.
My buddy (started brewing beer, quickly became a fan of kumbucha, sourdough, anything fermented) tried it years ago.
BTW, his bread and beer were amazing!
He said that his yeast culture (?) for sourdough quickly overtook the scoby (he called it a pelican or something).
Sorry, I have no idea of his process or how long he spent on this.
His opinion was that the bacteria was not compatible.
My opinion was to have him give me another slice of bread and glass of beer while he was talking.
