If you buy an option contract and then sell the same one, can it be exercised on you?

Like you buy 105 strike november 11 call then you sell 105 strike november 11 call, to make your position 0 because you want to exit it. Could the one you sold be exercised on you. Is this the same as writing a new contract or are you just selling it, and making yourself not liable for anything, and if so then who would it be exercised on? Only someone who has a negative amount of the same contract?
