Yes it can, just make sure to secure the blower mounts hydro lines so you dont run them over.

And also watch if you drop the bucket all the way down that you don't pinch things between the bucket and the blower mount.

I tried mine once, it would hit. Not really wanting to damage either doing something stupid.
I'm with Slim - -

Been a while, but seems it wouldn't work on my BX2360.

Didn't try it, but if I remember right the bucket would hit the hitch.

I tried with my BX 2370 and the blower mount hit the loader before I could get close enough to try and mount the loader.

Depends on what you want to do.

Can't dig with the bucket. As others have stated the raised FEL stand will hit the blower mount cylinder at about ground level with the bucket. Have to lift FEL above hood to raise/lower stand.

This week I was able to drop blower, attached FEL and swap to forks to unload delivery from a truck. Need blower mount down to attached FEL, then swap lines back and forth to raise mount after FEL attached. Then reverse process for snow storm. Better than removing mount and long driveshaft.
