I think that if this somehow took place in our modern world, even our world of the last few thousand years, it could definitely happen. It takes all sorts to make a world. You're on the internet right now, I'm sure it wouldn't take too much searching to find much weirder stuff than an Elf/Dwarf relationship.

But as far as Tolkien's world goes, I'm sure that such an even would have been chronicled. Unless it was possibly a secret tryst, maybe between one of the Elves of Hollin and a Dwarf of Khazad-Dum. I think that history and commonsense, however, tell us that such a thing has that could never be kept secret! I don't believe it ever happened.
