No, it can't. True, the opponent's king would be moving into check, but the thing is you moved into check first. Though your king is protected, opponent's king could capture your king and it's game over. You lose immediately and don't have the chance to take his king back. <p>So you cannot move your king next to opponent's king because that would be moving into check, no matter how protected your king is.
