I wouldn't. I've rarely seen a mixed planter of houseplants that looked good over a long period of time. Actually, I think they turn ratty looking. And the jade plant (crassula) is a succulent, requiring less water than the other 3.
An alternative would be to keep them in individual pots and set them all withing a larger container or basket. Allow the "heart plant" (philodendron) to grow around the tops of the other pots so they are not so obvious.
That way, if one croaks, you can always pick up another plant and pop it in to replace the dead one.
Good luck!
Is it ok to grow a small dracaena, dieffenbachia, jade plant, and my heart plant in the same planter?
No, they require different light levels,ie, the jade plant needs more light than the other 3. Also their growth habits differ enough they'd look kinda goofy together. The jade would be best by itself, it's really pretty when it gets full. With the other 3 you could plant some ivy around the base of them, or like the jade, they are pretty by themselves.
Reply:yes because they all have similar watering needs. It sounds pretty too.
