Brief Answer:
No.

Detailed Answer:
Welcome to Healthcare Magic. I am Dr Anshul Varshney for your help.
Tramadol and Hydrocodone both are opiod analgesics and should not be taken together until and unless directed by your doctor.

Taking both of them together can cause excessive sedation, drowsiness, breathing difficulties, and also have high risk of addiction potential.

Make sure that your doctor has directed you to take them together if you are taking them together.
If this is your own idea, please skip the idea.

I hope it helps you.
If you have any further query please ask me.
