Is there any physical way to pour lava onto liquid nitrogen?

I’m having an argument with my brother (he’s 8 but I need to call him out) and he’s trying to convince me that you can take a block of liquid nitrogen (stupid, right?) and somehow pour lava onto it.
Me, being a physics nerd and having played around a bit with liquid nitrogen, I know it’s not physically possible partly due to the Leidenfrost Effect, and just kinda common sense due to the temperature of both compounds.
So can someone give me a hand here, please?
