Yes you can. Sprinkle a thin layer over top and spritz some water on it if the VC is not too wet. Do not add until the old ones are gone. This is what I feed them when my bin is on the wet side from too much pumpkins.

The pellets will soak up extra moisture and is an excellent feed for the worms and your soil.
