Goldfish like the temp a little cooler and Africans like the temp a little warmer. Also pH requirements don't match. And there is always the aggression issue. I wouldn't do it.

Simply, no.

I wouldn't. Despite the reasons listed above goldfish are very messy eaters and can foul tank water conditions quickly. Despite the mbuna being relatively hardy fish I don't think they'd be able to handle that kind of nitrate level...
