I can;t give you a postitive answer, I would assume yes. But also, why on earth are you boiling your break fluid?

Magura used to be picky to what liquid is inside the brakes when dealing with warranty. Not sure if it's still the case.

But that aside, you can use the Shimano oil without any problem.

I have used Pentosin CHF 7.1 which is used in German cars.

IIRC 7.1 has been replaced, Pentosin and Febi Bilsen make compatible hydraulic fluid.

Basically you want something compatible with Pentosin 7.1 in the specs and you can get a 1L jug for not much at an auto supplier.
