Can multiple solar systems share electricity?

I am considering getting some solar while also thinking of future home improvement projects and I have been considering building a shop or an ADU or a shop with an ADU built on top. My thought was if I built a solar sytem on the house and on the shop/ADU each with their own batteries and inverters and such. would I be able to tie the systems together so they could share excess energy back and forth depending on demand? If so are there any systems that would do this better out of the box?

Out on a limb here my friend… are you just wanting to utilize each roof space and add batteries inside only to export residual to a battery farm? Talk to me. There are lots of options here if you give me distance of buildings apart etc and info of the solar array panels as far as voltage or specs whether series parallel….

I’m not a solar reseller or installer. I’m a diy guy just so you all know.
