If you both agree, yes, but ONLY if you both stipulate to it.

To be cautious, you may want to put the hearing over for a period of time to really see if the case should be dismissed. I've seen a number of cases in my 34 year of practice where there was a premature dismissal. Its costly when the parties have to refile and start the case all over again when their effort to reconcile falls apart.
