Yes, just plug it in - should be fine.  I have a RaspPi running four Block Erupters and one BFL 7 GH/s Jalapeno - so two different types of miner.  Just try it and see if it works.  I tried plugging in an additional three BFL 60 GH/s miners to it, but somehow it didn't work.  I don't exactly know why - maybe a USB hub issue?  Anyway, I've had to use a different RaspPi (and hub) to run the three singles.
