I have used both together on the same machine but I don't know I if I have actually tried both on the same cable before but I don't think there would be a problem. The SATA drive is on an adapter and so the machine doesn't see it as a SATA. However, I am very sure that most adapters are going to be preset as Cable Select (CS) so I would set the ATA drive likewise.
