Yes in principle. Except that those who have a gut feeling for markets and economics usually are not the same as those with technical acumen.
Usually, those with technical acumen find manipulating economic and financial data by hand, and doing so repeatedly, boring. Which, I think, is necessary to gain intuition. On the other hand, those who are willing to do this and perhaps even enjoy studying balance sheets and cash flow statements and product markets spend so much time doing this that they wouldn't have time to learn math and science and AI.
In other words, you will always have either/or guys. Those who understand the algos and those who understand the markets.
Which, by the way, doesn't keep me from trying ;)
