You can, but then you'll have a lawn that is neither fish or fowl. The
bermuda will dominate, but the fescue will be ever-present, and you won't
get the nice uniform look that comes from having a nice lawn of one species.
An option would be to overseed with Winter Rye. It'll stay green in the
winter, but will die once warm weather hits in late spring. If you go with
this option, you'll need to overseed the winter rye every year. I did this
for a couple of years when I had Bermuda, but eventually decided it wasn't
worth the trouble.
