It is probably not a good idea as toxic preservatives in the pressure treated wood can leach into the compost and then become incorporated in plants and their fruit and vegetables grown in that compost later. But using appropriate lining materials to completely prevent any contact between the pressure treated wood and the compost inside would avoid this problem. So a complete answer to your question is not simple.
