Mollies are in the Poelica families and swordtails are in the Xiphorus family. It is extremely unlikely that they will breed.
If you're looking to breed these fish, you'd need more of their respective species. The recommended ratio is 2-1 females to males at least, to minimize stress on the females.
 
I will not use the word impossible. But unlikely is the word.

I have one wild green sword male in my molly breeding tank with wild green mollies.

I have yet to see mollies with swords. I added two blk. female swords just to make him happy.

I did not want to disturb all my gravid females trying to catch 1 male sword.

Now I have baby swords swimming with baby mollies.

If a cross breed would happen It would most likely between these two.

These two sp. are being caught in the same place. I have never noticed a hybrid between these two sp.

I breed both types molies and swords.

Mollies and guppy. Swords and platys. These two can cross.
