how much do you like that anole?
although flapnecks are small im sure a full grown one would absolutely love to chomp that lizard right down. now, i don't know much about flapnecks but i do know that my veiled gets one every month or so, or a house gecko, and he thinks it's great!
so i would say it's a big NO to your question.

Nope! Even if one doesn't eat the other the cham will stress just from having the anole around. They will compete for food, water, and the best basking area. Their temp and humidity requirements are different, and they will expose each other to bacteria they might not have resistence to.
