Yes, just a little at a time to get the right shade.
Whenever I've mixed black into brown, I wound up with a puky green color. Totally unusable. Didn't matter what brand of black I used.
I would recommend letting your brown icing rest for a few hours or overnight, then add more brown color, if necessary.
