As far as I understand, yes you can. You cannot take clotting medications or MAOI's whilst taking Zoloft. "Do not take Zoloft together with pimozide (Orap), or a monoamine oxidase inhibitor (MAOI) such as isocarboxazid (Marplan), phenelzine (Nardil), rasagiline (Azilect), selegiline (Eldepryl, Emsam), or tranylcypromine (Parnate). You must wait at least 14 days after stopping an MAOI before you can take Zoloft. After you stop taking Zoloft, you must wait at least 14 days before you start taking an MAOI."** **http://www.drugs.com/zoloft.html

Zoloft is an SSRI (selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor). Tramadol is a painkiller with SNRI (serotonin and noadrenalin reuptake inhibitor) properties.

This is called Serotonin Syndrom, a very dangerous condition. Never mix multiple drugs that affect serotonin.
