Yes
Both MIT License and Beerware License are permissive licenses with minimal obligations. Combining code under them is straightforward; ensure the original copyright notices are preserved alongside any new ones.
| License | Family | Patent grant |
|---|---|---|
| MIT License (MIT) | permissive | No (implicit at most) |
| Beerware License (Beerware) | permissive | No (implicit at most) |
MIT License: Short, very permissive; minimal obligations beyond preserving the copyright notice.
Beerware License: Joke license: 'if we meet someday, you can buy me a beer.' Not legally rigorous.
