Sure you can. But there is absolutely no need for it.
 - libgphoto2 doesn't need libmnote at all.
 - libexif is based on a spec, libmnote tries to catch up with
   numerous different undocumented MakerNote-formats.
 - libexif is all about tags. libmnote is all about one tag.
 - I prefer smaller libraries, one library for each task.
 - There is no need for putting them together.
