Can I use a library that used AndroidX libs in my App with Android-support libs?

Question

actually this question is totally the opposite to this one.

Can I use library that used android support with Androidx projects.

And I knew there has been a trick to handle the above question by this config

android.useAndroidX=true
android.enableJetifier=true

However, I'm not sure is there another trick for the opposite case. When an App uses a libs which depend on AndroidX, but at the same time, the App also has dependencies on Android-support libs.

The example dependencies

    +--- App 
    |    +--- com.android.support:support-compat:28.0.0
    |    +--- Lib#1
    |    |    |
    |    |    +--- androidx.appcompat:appcompat:1.0.2

Thank you :)

I think we can use either androidx library or support library. we can;t use both on same project. — Sachin Maharjan, Sep 11 '19 at 08:00
You have to migrate to androidx. Just an example with the latest firebase libraries which require androidx migration. — Gabriele Mariotti, Sep 11 '19 at 08:04
