According to the docs, it is possible: Mesos-DNS follows RFC 952 for name formatting. All fields used to construct hostnames for A records and service names for SRV records must be up to 24 characters and drawn from the alphabet (A-Z), digits (0-9) and minus sign (-). No distinction is made between upper and lower case. If the task name does not comply with these constraints, Mesos-DNS will trim it, remove all invalid characters, and replace period (.) with sign (-) for task names.
However, it is a bit dodgy, specially if your app id is longer than 24 characters. It sometimes work, sometimes does not. I think your record will go along the lines of: mesosspark-shuffle-service.marathon.mesos and so on. Be careful about the 24 character limit. Depending on where the invalid characters happen in the string, it may render the whole record unavailable (mesos-dns will not be able to return it).
