Yes it/they can. Care should be taken to let the temperature of the water the fish is/are in slowly equalise with the water in the pond before releasing the fish otherwise it/they may die from temperature shock.

Which type of fish live best with kois?
Very calm and non-territorial fish. I would suggest gold fish called Comets. They are inexpensive since some are used as feeder fish. They come in a variety of colors so some may think that you have more Koi in your pond and since they are gold fish, they can live in cold water and if your pond has enough room, they will survive cold snaps during the winter.
