Can we call a “case” inside another case in the same switch statement in Java?

Question

My intention is to call two cases inside another case in the same switch statement,

switch (orderType) {
        case 1: 
            statement 1;

Although you cannot influence the switch cases directly, you can call switch's parent method from one case and pass different arguments. For example,

void foo(int param1, String param2, ...) {
    switch (param1) {
        case 0:
            foo(1, "some string");
            break;

        case 1:
            //do something
            break;

        default:
            break;
    }
}
