    I think it's more than plausible- esp considering that both could have intermingled and mixed at some point.

    In the case of mixed pantheons, I think it's up to the practitioner and the gods to decide what is the best way to proceed with worship and the format/style for rituals and all of that. But I see no reason why it couldn't work.

    I do. I have 3-my main Patron is Greek, my othhers are Egyptian and Celtic. It works for me and They obviously don't have an issue with it.
