No you cant...

Thermostatic mixer showers need the hot and cold to be at exactly the same pressure. Your drawing indicates that the hot is pumped and the cold is gravity fed...

Get around this by using a twin scroll pump that pushes hot and cold to the mixer.

no probs, that was the first plan, but using existing pump looked like the lazy option!
