Can neural evidence refute behavioral findings?

I've been thinking about this question lately: can neural evidence (e.g. from fMRI, EEG, TMS...) refute behavioral findings? It seems that the primary function of imaging studies is to explain the neural processes of certain well-established behavioral phenomena, but it's rarely the other way around. Is it even possible to debunk the behavioral data?
