Is it possible?

To go from 1.049 pre boil reading on a refractometer to a 1.046 reading after the boil?

Really confused about it

short answer is No. You didn't mix it well or didn't measure properly.

Nice

Assuming 60 minute BOIL. You would lose some percentage water that would drive your Gravity lower than 1.046. Measure again, and again.

I'm assuming you SG from the boil is off somehow

Probably should rephrase that, because it's backward as written...
