In general this can't happen. Replication is done at the
directory entry semantic level, so each server re-creates
its own underlying database content to reflect replicated
entries (unlike for example a transaction log shipping type
replication that you might see in some relational databases).

However, if there were a database corruption bug present
somewhere in the server, it is possible, even likely that the
same bug would be triggered in multiple replicating servers
that contain the same data.
