It might be possible, but I wouldn't try it or recommend it. The smaller the tank, the harder it is to maintain proper water quality. If you were to put an anemone in with them in such a small tank, you'd be battling water quality issues quite regularly -- as in every time you feed it. There's a lot of places that recommend a tank > 30g for an anemone, but even that is on the small side IMO. I wouldn't put one in a tank smaller than 50g, considering how long anemones can live and how large they can grow.
