Answer: 
Absolutely! (except in some cases like 'very large' mountings & some small stud style errings). You just HOLD YOUR GEMSTONE/S BY THE MOUNTING INSTEAD of Gem Tweezers. You must be able to get a 'top-view' as with other loupes.

Answer: 
As long as you can insert the gem into the opening of the loupe well enough to see, you could use it for a mounted stone. Keep in mind that you will be holding a loose gem with tweezers, so your visibility of all angles of the gem will be more ideal on a loose gem.
