In a flat answer NO!

There is a law of physics called Dalton's Law.

"The total pressure of a confined mixture of gases is the sum of the partial pressures of each of the gases in the mixture".

Each gas behaves as if it occupies the space ALONE!

You have to remove all of the original gas.

There are other "drop in" refrigerants but they mean into a "empty system".

As far as oil you have to follow the manufacturer of the refrigerant recommendation.
