Short answer, yes. If your system has not been opened, you only need to vacuum before loading. R414 is compatible with mineral oils and all other R12 components, however...
Long answer, it has similar properties to R12, but not exactly the same so when installing it in a system designed for R12 you'll need to pay close attention to pressures and temperatures. Don't be surprised if the sight glass doesn't clear, most auto systems will only require 80-85% R414 by weight which will likely leave bubbles in the sight glass, filling to clear the SG will likely result in an overfill condition.
