Default Can you mix oil weights?

Let's say you're at a point where you need to add a quart of oil.
You've decided you would like to finish this oil change interval at
a lighter weight (eg you put in AeroShell W100, SAE-50, and now it's
freaking cold). Can you add a quart of a (substantially?) lighter
weight oil (presumably in the same 'series')?
