I am currently writing a story where the perpetrator of a murder is trying to frame someone else by planting evidence. Would you be able to use an innocent man's semen, say from a used condom, and insert it into a victim in order for him to be framed?

I'm also going to have the murderer plant hairs, fibers, etc at the crime scene is that possible?
