Could a creature use both infrasound and ultrasound?

I was thinking of a creature that uses ultrasound to echolocate and infrasound to communicate with its species.

The current idea is a dog-like creature that hunts in packs, due to a large avian predator they developed infrasound to communicate at a pitch that cannot be heard by the predator and their prey.

The Dog-like creatures are also blind so their main sensory method is ultrasound for echolocation.

Can a creature make both ultra and infrasounds? would they need a specific shape of body to achieve this?

Edit: I don't think any animals use both very low or high frequencies, creatures like an elephant or giraffe have long resonance chambers to create the low sound, would a creature need two resonance chambers one shorter one longer, would a dog-like body be able to make both sounds?
