Subdomain Delegation and A record

Is it possible to have a subdomain delegation in a parent zone while also having an "A" record for a host with the same name as the subdomain?
I have a current situation that requires this setup if possible.
 
Example:
 
Can I have an "A" record for:  test.company.com
While also having a subdomain for test.company.com with hosts in it?
<<In the parent domain of company.com>>
test   in    a     x.x.x.x
test   in    ns    ns1
test   in    ns    ns2
 
<<In the subdomain: test.company.com>>
host  in   a   x.x.x.x    (host.test.company.com)
 
I tried to set this up the same way as with my other subdomains, but it broke the "a" record in the parent domain.  Any ideas how to make this setup work.  I hope this makes sense.  Thanks,
