Only if you want to destroy that engine over time which is what will happen if you use 2 cycle oil. Use only SAE 10w30 synthetic oil any major brand.

What happens if you put chainsaw gas in you lawnmower?
You can cut down trees with your lawnmower. Warning: Do not actually try to cut down a tree with your lawnmower. More than likely, the gas in the chainsaw is mixed with 2-cycle oil. If your mower also has a 2-cycle engine, nothing will happen. If your mower has a 4-cycle engine, the engine will probably smoke (bluish in color) until the oil is burnt up during combustion. At worst, the oil in the 2-cycle oil/gas mixture will foul up the spark plug and you will probably have to clean it pretty often until the oil is burnt up.
