Yes, but it may be ideal to help with the feeding using a kitten formula and bottles supplied by a vet. Mother cats have 6 nipples, so feeding 9 kittens without help could be very challenging for her.

What if your 9 month old kitten is pregnant what could happen?

At 9 months old, it is still a kitten. Kittens are still growing and developing a great deal at this age, and do not reach adulthood until after 1 year old. Just because kittens reach sexual maturity at 5-6 months, doesn't mean it is fine for them to have kittens. However, at this age, the cat is still very much a kitten and pregnancies from cats that young rarely produce a healthy litter of kittens, and poses a risk for the young cats' (and litter) health and well-being.

You'll need to give your cat lots of extra care and nutritious food while she's feeding nine kittens. Nine is a lot, but if she's fed well and often, she will be fine.
