You can. No problems to even run both processes on the same server. There 
are even features that allow you to take the "Proxy-Authorization" header 
(passed on through cache_peer) and assign a certain WebWasher profile to 
certain users. We are doing LDAP authenticatio at Squid level but assign 
further content filtering profiles at the WebWasher.

The reason I sound so euphoric is that I've wasted a whole year testing 
different content filters and discovered that most of the commercial 
software out there on the market is even worse than I expected. I'm still 
dreaming of an OSS content filtering proxy. The ICAP interface would make 
it a perfect addition to Squid then.
