Blimey, how are you playing chess? No, you can't. If the queen takes a piece, she stops on the square that the taken piece occupied. Same for any piece taking another piece.

Jenstar has correctly answered your question regarding a Queen taking a Pawn but I'm still slightly worried about the way that Jenstar plays chess. If he/she states that the piece carrying out the capture always finishes on the square occupied by the captured piece, it seems that Jenstar is playing a version of chess which doesn't include the 'en passant' rule ;-)
