Can 2 or 3 different species of fish co-mingle in the same tank?

Well, a 2 gallon tank, to be specific. 2 gallon tank, no filter/shenanigans like that. Just gravel and a plant or two.

Can fish of different types get on together, or will they just eat each other?
For instance, like, say a gorami + a goldfish.
or 2 betas + a black molly.
or...a tetra + a beta + a goldfish.
(Just examples, don't worry, I know none of those get along...)
If so, which specieses...speci...speciesez...Which kinds would get along?
(Keep in mind the two gallon-ness of the tank)
Oh my gosh. I can't believe that. How am I so wrong!?
Thank you, people. =)

If anyone sees this, then what kind of fish CAN live in a 2-gal tank?
 
A two gallon tank isn't really big enough for anything, except maybe one betta, a ghost shrimp, or an African dwarf frog. I wouldn't try to put more than one of these in there.

Goldfish require 10 to 20 gallons per fish. A very small gourami like a honey gourami might be okay in a small tank, but I'm afraid 2 gallons is too small. Tetras are schooling fish and prefer to be with five or more of their own kind, so they're better off in at least a 20 gallon tank.
