What is your actual goal? That is, what you do mean by "to work"? I
ask because although, as Nicolas has said, you cannot do this directly
with org, you can achieve some specific goals with special blocks and/or
drawers. For instance, if your goal were to export to LaTeX, this code
would do the job:
#+begin_src org
,#+latex_header: \let\myquote\quote
,* testing nested blocks
Joe said:
,#+begin_quote
This is the outer block.
,#+begin_myquote
and this is the inner block
,#+end_myquote
followed by the outer block.
,#+end_quote
and that is all folks.
#+end_src
