no. most general purpose silicone is acid cure, and will hasten the mirror
rot.

Common silicones cure by reacting with moisture and release acetic
acid. The (vinegar) acid is volatile and will probably dissipate
quickly before any significant effect on the mirror coating. Worth a
try, since the mirror protective layer may already be history.
