I'm not sure why you'd say it's impossible, although I'm not sure what you're trying to describe with "1/2" and "2/3" - maybe adding in lower frequencies than the fundamental?  I'm not sure why you'd do that and 2/3 would be inharmonic and sound shite.

If you mean 2nd and 3rd harmonics, they're *easy*.
