Yes, but I can't "find" Threads content from Lemmy.world
I think it might happen just from doing a search for the content using the right terms / string?
You cannot view microblog posts from Lemmy, so the only way you'll see anything from Threads is if a user from there responds to content posted to Lemmy or similar sites. Possibly also if they choose to tag a community in their post, but that seems unlikely for anything else than testing purposes.
Same as Mastodon users, really.
A quick look through the source code suggests that any attempt to interact with or by another instance creates a database entry for it, which makes it show up at /instances. Someone could have tried to view a threads account from lemmy.world, or someone at Threads may have tried to view a lemmy.world post, user, or community from within Threads for testing.
fwiw, it does not appear to be triggerable from within lemmy at this time.
I've just tried this on another instance and lemmy complains
I suspect this currently can only be triggered from threads.
