You *might* see that with one amplified and one non-amplified antenna.  I
doubt you'd see it with two amplified antennas.  Most amplifiers tend to
isolate their output from their input.  (This is why trying to run a cable
modem off a distribution amplifier rarely works, unless the amplifier is
specifically designed for it.)
