I have tried, and it doesn't seem to work very well. The triops usually get sucked into filters, or eaten/picked at by the fish. That doesn't mean you cant, it just means that the way I tried it did not work. If you kept them with very small fish, in a tank with a sponge filter (where they cant get sucked up), that might work better.

Can tropical fish live wth brackish fish?

Tropical and brackish are not mutually exclusive. Tropical means warm, and brackish means somewhat salty. Many brackish fish ARE tropical, and many tropical fish are brackish. You can keep tropical brackish fish with other tropical brackish fish, if they have the same temperment and will not harm or eat eachother. You can keep some brackish fish with some freshwater tropicals, and similarly you can keep some brackish fish with some marine tropicals. There are no wide open set of principles for brackish fish compatability beyond those that I have just illustrated.
