[boost] [asio] Mixing of sync and async calls

Is it legal to mix async and sync function calls?
(I was not able to find the answer in the doc.)

E.g.

socket.async_read_some(buf);
socket.write_some(otherbuf);

Also when in a blocking sync call, will it be
possible to "cancel" it from another thread,
e.g. by posting to the io_service which will
invoke a close on the socket?

Thank you in advance.
