Not usual, but can happen.
The Infield Fly rule does not mean an outfielder cannot catch the ball as well. No rule that I am aware of that makes it against the rules for an outfielder to catch a ball you declare an infield fly. At least not with the FED Rule. But I would not be surprised if somewhere there is a difference.
Peace
