The short answer is yes. If they are both of the same base (latex, oil, acrylic).

More important how ever is where the paint is. If you are working out of doors, go right ahead, if however you are intending to paint an exterior paint over interior paint, indoors, then please do not do it.

Exterior paints have a number of chemicals that make them more suitable to exterior conditions, and a lot of them are not good for you. The out-gassing process takes a lot longer and exposes you to potential harm.
