Can the front and back of cards be reversed or viewed in reverse?

Yes. You can use the Basic (and reversed card) or Basic (optional reversed card) note types to create two cards with the sides reversed. Alternatively you can edit the card templates of your existing cards to flip them around. See [Getting Started - Anki Manual](https://docs.ankiweb.net/getting-started.html#notes--fields) for more information.
