Can a normal mountain (like K2 or everest) become a volcano?

Steve

No, volcanoes form where there is a source of magma within the Earth. "Normal mountains" as you say, are formed in a different manner, namely the crunching and piling up of material as two continents collide. there is no magma produced in this process so there won't be volcanoes associated with it.
