You can try - In terms of whether the machine will let you or react well to it is another matter. Because you are using knitted fabric, which is stretchy as opposed to traditional woven fabric which is not, when the needle goes through the fabric, instead of puncturing it, the fabric might pull down into the bottom bed, in which case the stitches might not be as perfect as if you were using a woven fabric.
If you do manage to embroider onto it, because the fabric is stretchy (whereas the stitches wont be) the texture of the knittred fabric where it has been embroidered might not look or feel that neat.
If you want to embroider onto knit I suggest you research how to hand embroider onto knit. This isn't hand embroidery in the normal sence, it involves your stitches following the form of the knitted stitches (almost like over knitting). This way the fabric remains malliable.

Machine embroidery is the process of using a sewing machine to produce decorations and trims on fabric.
Embroidery can only be done with a sewing machine capable of doing so. Some sewing machines are made specifically for embroidery, or there are normal sewing machines that have an embroidery option.
