    Sure you can.
    Existing WP at root and WPMU in folder like /blogs/ look at this tutorial. Existing WP at root and WPMU in subdomain like blogs.example.com can be done too. However, you might want to consider importing your WP into WPMU so you only have one installation to upgrade, update and/or maintain.

    And if you merge in your WP install into the main blog on the MU site, if it's a small blog, just Export all the data and when MU is set up, import it.

    If you have a ton of stuff you want to keep (plugin and theme settings), or there's lot of users, your best bet is database to database.
