Technically yes with 'combi' bindings that feature interchangeable flexors, but it's not ideal. Classic and skate bindings have fundamentally different flex characteristics—classic needs soft flex for smooth striding, while skate needs stiff flex for lateral stability. Combi bindings compromise both disciplines. If you ski both regularly, dedicated bindings for each discipline will perform significantly better.
