In principle yes, provided you use a proper functional for the 
exchange-correlation energy (e.g., PBE). But, I don't think that it is 
necessary (and a good idea) to use mBJ and DFT-D3 simultaneously. mBJ is only 
for electronic structure, while DFT-D3 is only for geometry. Instead, do first 
the geometry optimization with DFT-D3 (combined with a standard GGA), and then 
use mBJ for band structure.

Furthermore, if you need to optimize internal parameters, then for sure it will 
not work if mBJ is used (the forces on the nuclei will be wrong).

Subject: [Wien] mBJ with DFT-D3 dear wien2k users;
can we combine mBJ with DFT-D3 ?
