I'd say yes, you can come to new realisations and conclusions by thinking about what you already know. You can get more information out of information you already have.
I call this "The Penny Dropping".
If you're talking about totally unrelated information that cannot possibly be concluded from what you already know, then no. You can only form hypotheses. Of course, it may be possible to conclude things from what we know, but we lack the cognitive functions necessary to draw such conclusions.
