While it can be done, there are reasons why it shouldn't IMHO, firstly the length of a regular jacket interferes with the pleats of the kilt, secondly it interferes with the sporran as there is no cut out for one, thirdly it looks sloppy even if it fits everywhere else it looks too big due to the length of the jacket and high waist of the kilt.
