The cells of the $11 \times 111 \times11$ cube contain the numbers $ 1, 2, , . .. . . 1331$, once each number. Two worms are sent from one corner cube to the opposite corner. Each of them can crawl into a cube adjacent to the edge, while the first can crawl if the number in the adjacent cube differs by $8$, the second - if they differ by $ 9$. Is there such an arrangement of numbers that both worms can get to the opposite corner cube?
