Not according to Rashi. Here is what Rashi says about Gen 4:

This teaches you that all of them were created on the first day.

There is more here, but it is somewhat esoteric. Because if you read this verse in the Hebrew script, the spelling of the word "they were created" is altered slightly to include a small Hey, which of course is used twice in the Hebrew name for God.

He goes on to explain that this infers that God created two worlds, and that this world was created with the letter Hey. "An intimation that the wicked will descend o the nether world, to see the pit like the letter Hey, which is closed from all sides and is open at the bottom [for the wicked] to descend through there.

Then Raschi is wrong. Genesis 1 is a clear telling in specifics of Creation, while Genesis 2 changes tone. It is tellng the same story, but using a different method. God is not contradicting Himself, He is just using a different method of telling the story across to us.

Hi. Are you asking me a question? I haven't followed this thread. I don't usually go to Creationism/Evolution threads.
