IMO, for a while they can but in the long run, not really. Cactus can go without water for up to a month while jade would need water before that. I would separate them and grow individually. Also, during peak of Summer, jade can burn if too much sun while the cactus needs a lot of sun (that is, if it's already acclimated to full sun). Also, the cactus can only take so much water or it will crack, happened to me, lol.

Gifted succulents from a friend (for Mother’s Day) in a watering can 🤣 Her mind of humor!
