The short answer is no. As with a lot of things it is possible to find a way to make it work but for practical purposes nitromethane doesn't work well with gasoline or diesel systems. Working for a nitromethane producer, your companies' production chemists should be able to tell you way more than you ever wanted to know about why this is.
