Probably not.

Your existing house cabling is most-likely RG59 coaxial cable feeding multiple locations in the residence via cable TV splitters. Whereas you might just get acceptable performance with RG59 instead of RG6, the cable TV splitters are a definite show stopper.

On the other hand, you can use a diplexor to add the cable TV signal onto the satellite cable then another diplexor at the satellite receiver to separate the cable TV signal back out, if that is at all useful to you.
