Kinda. It has to be a crime in both jurisdictions, and it’s only between state and federal systems. Two different courts in the same state are under the same judicial authority, so they can’t both try you.
If you commit bank robbery for example, you’ve invariably committed armed robbery in a state against an entity under federal jurisdiction. That means they can both prosecute.
