Most likely the different albino genes will not be compatible, no and you will end up with double het-albino bateaters. Which is still very good. But there are sometimes surprises and the least expected happens in hybrid breedings and I would never say that it was impossible for something albino to come out of any given hybrid pairing. One breeder in germany, his name is moritz von zeddelmann but he goes by the name of Moe in forums, produced the world's first african rock/reticulated hybrids by breeding, if memory serves correctly, a calico female retic to a wild-caught normal male rock. In the batch of babies was an albino even though neither parent was albino or het for albino. Unfortunately none of these babies were able to escape their eggs and they all drowned but they all made it to full term and pictures of the dead babies are available.
