Can I use already a redis instance from my project that uses noderedis package not ioredis?

I have a Nest.js project that already has use of redis but the package is noderedis not ioredis.I start to read bullmq docs because in the coming fututre i'd like to implement some background processing and it says that bullmq uses ioredis.

You can use node-redis and ioredis in the same application if you want. You can also share the same Redis instance for BullMQ and other uses, I would recommend in this case to dedicate one database only for BullMQ so that the keys do not get mixed with each other (you choose which database to use using the db option in ioredis)
