Yes, you can place windowed applications on a desktop with a full-screen app. By default, the system splits the desktop so apps appear side by side, but you can adjust settings to have them overlap.

Open both windows in full screen, then move Mission Control over the other. Edit: Overlapping windows detected, correction made February 8, 2018 by Guest

Certainly, provided the application maintains its size once it moves to a different window (such as certain Java programs), the spoiler applies.
