Are you talking about combining volumes in Fluent or in Gambit. Gambit doesn't really care about material. So, you can just connect them. However, if you are trying to do that in Fluent, then physics gets involved and certainly you can't have two volumes combined if they are of different material. So, either you make them have same material or you can define those faces as grid interfaces
