What kind of wire?
If it's a power wire, why is the place wired with conduit?
Commercial buildings must put all power wiring in conduit, so if you're planning to run romex in a commercial building, the answer would be "no", it's not permissible.
If it's data wire, note that there may be some "crossover" interference if the data wire follows a power wire for very much distance. It's usually not a problem to cross a conduit and tie to it, but it's generally recommended that you not tie data cable to conduit.
