Its possible, but not worth the heartbreak of losing a critter. on the one hand, both are small and would run around and love to play, but on the other hand, in the ferrets natural environment, ferrets are used for rabbit population control. Ferrets are also carnivorous, whereas squirrels are herbivores. on the other hand, it is said that domesticated ferrets have lost most or all of the instinct to kill other critters for food unless prompted to do so. like training it for hunting. if you are going to put these two together in a household, i recommend not teaching your ferret to eat live prey, because then, the squirrel will be considered fair game.
They may live together, but I would be wary of letting them play together. Ferrets are carnivores and may attack squirrels.
