Answer:

  No

Step-by-step explanation:

Each median resides entirely within the triangle. The point of their intersection (the centroid) is always inside the triangle. The point Peter is describing is not the intersection of medians.

_____

The intersection of altitudes may be outside the triangle, as may be the intersection of side bisectors. The latter is called the circumcenter.
