It is not recommended to do this. The reason being is that if both appliances are on at the same time, there is a chance that the breaker will trip. If the breaker is not reset right away it will leave the refrigerator with no power. A fridge with no power will start to defrost if it has a freezer compartment. When new homes are being built electricians wire each individual appliance outlet as a dedicated circuit, meaning that only one appliance outlet is assigned to that circuit and nothing else.
