Hmmm... I never really thought of that... I want to say that it could happen since lava did in fact burn fire, so other logias can "alter" other logias. I would say that if anything the fire could turn the sand to glass, but I'd think that Crocodile could just cut off that part and sand would just replace it rather than it not being able to regenerate. But then again it could actually just not come back... Hell that could be what happened to give him his hook. But I'd say that if he were to die from being turned to glass I'd say that it would still come back as a Suna Suna no Mi since that was its original form. The other thing that could happen would be that two fruits might grow, one being Suna Suna no Mi, and the other the Grasu Grasu no Mi. I mean if it did actually chemically create a new Devil Fruit, then both may grow. I don't know, but this really is an interesting thought and I'm glad you thought of this.
