Default Can I top up existing G12 coolant with long life coolant?

My mechanic says yes as long as it's long life and red or pink.

But I saw at least one post on the net where someone claims he did that and his coolant ended up as jello.
Mechanic says that only happens when you add regular coolant which is typically green.
Any comments?
