Absolutely! Christmas and Chanukkah are compatible as are Passover and Easter. Many of us as Christians also celebrate The Passover, as did Jesus Christ. We recognize the cleansing, protective lamb's blood of Passover as a foreshadowing of the blood shed by our Messiah's during His ultimate sacrifice on the cross.

Regarding Biblical Holy Holidays...Colossians 2:16-17

16 Therefore let no one pass judgment on you in questions of food and drink or with regard to a festival or a new moon or a sabbath. 17 These are only a shadow of what is to come; but the substance belongs to Christ.
