Default Is it possible to convert clutch slave cylinder to dot4?

Is it possible to convert the clutch slave cylinder to accept dot4?
I considering the Clake SLR to get a nicer setup of the levers and hopefully a stronger lhrb.

Is your clutch mineral oil right now?

I have switch from mineral oil to ATF with no issues what so ever. Been doing this for years. What the US calls mineral oil is very different than what Europe does.

ATF is technically mineral oil, although I use "Magura Blood" in my clutch.
The only danger from switching from a mineral oil to brake fluid would be if it was still going to be used as a clutch master cylinder. I was told that it could cause the clutch slave cylinder o-ring to fail.
If it is used for a left hand rear brake, it will be fine.

Prior to about 2006, the GasGas AJP clutch used Dot4 brake fluid.
