That sounds like a join. If so, the answer would be no.

Your description is not consistent with the query you have given. If
field:XYZ is specified, then what are "types" of XYZ? Also, if you want to
perform a query where field3 is equal to the value of field1 then, what is
field4 in the query you have given?

That sounds similar to faceting. See
http://wiki.apache.org/solr/SimpleFacetParameters
Perhaps you can give more details on what you want to achieve.
