not entirely sure what form they come in but if they're liquid, then yes pretty easily, just mix them in a lighter ratio than the bottle recommends (1/4 strength or so) If they're powder give them longer to dissolve. If its a solid fertilizer, let it soak in the foliar mixture for several days shaking often, and then strain through cheesecloth or similar. I've done this method with organic blood meal (Pure nitrogen only) and it worked well.

Yeah that's I would do... look for the one that has the most nitrate nitrogen then feed at 1/4th like plantsap suggested.

Nitrogen is quickly mobile in the plant. If it truly is N def, adding N to the reservoir should yield results in a day, and without risking burnt leaves. If you MUST foliar-feed N, use urea. cn
