Dear J. Park,

In principle there is no problem at all and there have been publications 
addressing charged defects based on Q.E. calculations employing DFT+U.  See for 
example:
http://pubs.acs.org/doi/abs/10.1021/jp1041316

The only practical detail worth mentioning in my opinion is that if you use 
fixed occupations then you are forced to specify the total magnetization of the 
super cell instead relying on self-constant determination of the magnetic 
moment.  One way to go around this is to use small smearing and then 
self-consistent determination of the total magnetic moment is possible (of 
course starting from some initial guess).
