In parallel on the same JVM ofc you can.

Migrating might be a problem.

At least you would be able to use JOGL for offscreen rendering
and later compositing into the javafx scene[1] similar to what we do
with GLJPanel!

If you find a solution (-> [1]) you can copy GLJPanel and change it
appropriately. We can help a little bit and merge it into JOGL.
Shouldn't be too hard.

[1] I don't know JavaFx so you would need to check for yourself.
