Sure, you can mix potassium chloride and citric acid; you can pretty well mix any two chemicals together if you wish, although there may not be any point in doing so. The only time you really have to worry about adding acid to another chemical is when cyanide ions are involved, such as potassium cyanide. You could then release poisonous gas (cyanogen) into the air and possibly poison yourself, if you added citric acid. Although citric acid is quite weak, as acids go, so it would not be as risky as adding something like nitric acid (etc.).
