Yes. You could do that, but that's a rather restrictive definition for an interaction and you'd need another mask to truly get to your definition, see below. An interaction could be: task1>task 2 at time 1 AND task1>task2 at time2, but the task effect is much greater than that at task 1. Alternatively, task2>task1 at time2 could be significant. The latter would not fit your definition as you've said task1 and task2 need to be not different at time 2. You'd need an exclusive mask of task2>task1 at time 2 to meet your definition.
