They should be able to, as long as you have a controller that can balance the load of the two different systems. The reaction times are similar and response times are more affected by engine size then differences in type of governor.

If the mass of the moving parts are significantly different, there will be a tendency of the lighter engine (faster response) to try and take all the load , while the other will simply free wheel.(follow)
