Best Answer

Here you are:

\documentclass[a4paper,11pt]{article}
\usepackage{multirow}
\usepackage{array}
 \begin{document}


\begin{tabular}{|>{\centering\arraybackslash}m{2cm}
                |>{\centering\arraybackslash}m{2.4cm}|}\hline
X & Y \\ \hline
\multirow{2}{*}{No problem} & One Line \\ \cline{2-1} 
                            & Two Line \\ \hline
\multirow{5}{*}{Problem} & One Line \\ \cline{2-1} 
                         & \hfil1 \newline \null\hfil 2 \newline\null\hfil 3 \newline 4\\ \hline
\end{tabular}

\end{document}

\hfil corrects additional horizontal space added by \newline, \null is a horizontal box with zero width.
