Yes. Mirroring is done at the SQL Server level so it doesn't really know about the underlying architecture (nor does it probably care all that much except for resource consumption). I would assume that if you followed the standard guidelines for setting up & configuring mirroring, it should work just fine. https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms190941.aspx
