Yes, this is possible. How much depends on how viscous the mixture will be. Too thick mashes are more difficult to distill and the yield is quite low. So in principle, fluid mashes are best, like pressed fruit juice (e.g. peach, apricot, pear juice). A consistency of apple puree is a bit too thick.
