unless you want whatever you are baking to taste of mint, no. that is why it is called mint extract, because it is minty, but vanilla extract is vanilla tasting.

I have used rum extract, almond extract, anise extract, and a bit of whiskey or vodka, or nothing at all, in place of vanilla in many different recipes including frosting.
