Yes you can mix different brands but I recommend you do not mix different weights. You can even mix synthetic oil with conventional oil. But as the weight of the oil is critical, do not ever mix one weight of oil with another, no matter if it is synthetic or conventional oil.

Can you mix 5w20 with 5w30?

Even if you can it's not a good idea. These oils have different viscosity and might have different chemical content. When you mix the oils it can change their mechanical properties and the oil will not be as good as when they are separate. You can get special additives to tune 5w20 in something in between 5w20 and 5w30.
