I don't see why not. In my 77 gallon reef there is two fire shrimps, two cleaner shrimps and 8 sexy shrimps. The cleaners claimed the right side and the fire claimed the left half - never bother each other and the sexys just stay where ever lately - kindof like nomads.

All the shrimp don't attack conspecifics or there others and seem to be quite happy. My only complaint on the fire shrimp is their secluded nature, they do hide a fair amount - yet they also hide together.
