It would perhaps work IF you could find a suitable adapter but lenses for micro4/3 have a smaller image circle (sensor surface area 225m2) than those for APS-C (sensor surface area 329 mm2). The resulting image would look somewhat like severe vignetting.

See here : https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&url=http://photoseek.com/2013/compare-digital-camera-sensor-sizes-full-frame-35mm-aps-c-micro-four-thirds-1-inch-type/&ved=2ahUKEwjZr4H9hqHvAhWByoUKHfAxBV0QFjACegQIAhAF&usg=AOvVaw1Q5kKDClCREgSwyruDaUfk

The absence of any suitable adapters is sort of a giveaway......
