No, the two should never mix.

If the engine has ever been overheated it could have caused the head to warp resulting in a blown head gasket. Oil in the coolant is one indication of a blown head gasket so you might want to take care of that before driving anywhere else.

What does it mean when the left side of your radiator was smoking and it damaged the radiator cap when you took it off there was a lot of coolant in the radiator?

If the thermostat is broken it will not let fluid into the engine and then the engine will overheat and the radiator will release smoke.
