 It&amp;#39;s possible, yes, and grammatical. 
  
 The past tense &amp;quot;came&amp;quot; could suggest either a) greater tentativeness about making the suggestion or b) greater tentativeness about making the trip.

  Also possible: we could meet if I came to London (same meaning as highlighted sentence, but perhaps less likely to occur).</description></item><item><title>Re: When/if</title><link>http://www.englishforums.com/English/WhenIf/wpblh/post.htm#742395</link><pubDate>Fri, 22 May 2009 12:16:29 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">946f00bb-57d3-4b7b-a9a2-059b5341af52:742395</guid><dc:creator>optilang</dc:creator><slash:comments>3</slash:comments><comments>http://www.englishforums.com/English/WhenIf/wpblh/post.htm#742395</comments><wfw:commentRss>http://www.englishforums.com/English/comments12-742395.xml</wfw:commentRss><description>Hi We can meet if I come to London - the meeting depends on whether or not I come to London.
