T60.92XA vs T60.92XS

T60.92XA (Toxic effect of unspecified pesticide, intentional self-harm, initial encounter) compared with T60.92XS (Toxic effect of unspecified pesticide, intentional self-harm, sequela), from the official CMS tabular data. T60.92XA and T60.92XS code the same injury at a different phase of treatment.

Can these codes be reported together?

Same injury, other encounter phase. T60.92XA and T60.92XS code the same injury at a different phase of treatment, set by the 7th character.

The 7th character records the type of care given at the encounter being coded (ICD-10-CM Official Guidelines, Section I.C.19.a), so one encounter takes one of these, not both.
