Debt in order to exit a Shareholder

Hi everyone, 

I have a company form by two shareholders (I'm one of them) is it possible to borrow debt through the company (which just have a working capital credit)  in order to pay my partner shares? 

Thanks all

Yes, simply put upstream loans are a thing. However there are potentially tax consequences which will vary from jurisdiction to jurisdiction.
