Can we create a master-detail relationship in this case?
A custom object contains some records, now my requirement is to create a field in this object with a master-detail relationship. Can we create a master-detail relationship in this case?

No, directly we cannot create master-detail relationship if custom object contains existing records.Following are the steps to create master-detail relationship when records are available in custom object.
First create field with lookup relationship.
And then associate look field with parent record for every record.
Next change the data type of the field from look up to Master detail.
