I don't know specifically about these two species but if they require the same care and are both large enough to not be eaten by the other then I would guess it shouldn't be a problem. You'll probably want a better answer than that though. Some species of amphibians have toxins in their skin that may be harmful to other species. I've heard stories of Gray Treefrogs being stored for a few minutes in a bucket on a rainy night with a few other species during a night time road search -- all the non-gray treefrogs died most likely due to toxins excreted from the grays. That's just an example of things that might not be predictable. If someone doesn't answer your question regarding your two species here you might want to check out a vivarium forum as many people keeping vivariums have experience in what species can and cannot be mixed together
