Existence of a matrix product from its eigenvalues

The eigenvalues of A, B and AB, denoted by $\lambda(X)$, obey the relation (from Bhatia): $$ \lambda^\downarrow(A) \cdot \lambda^\uparrow(B) \prec \lambda(AB) \prec \lambda^\downarrow(A) \cdot \lambda^ … My question is, for a given set of eigenvalues $\lambda(A),\, \lambda(B)$ and $\lambda(AB)$ which satisfies the above, does there necessarily exist an A and B such that they and AB have the desired eigenvalues
