I 'think' you can. If there is a question at all in your mind and you don't want to redo the base coat. Give it a shot of dull coat first to protect it.

I've been able to do it without any problems or need to put a barrier between one paint brand and the other.

I agree should be no problem. But, if you want to be absolutely sure. Test on a scrap piece first!
