I thought it might make it taste better. If I'm going to do a boxed recipe instead of homemade I'd rather have at least one secret ingredient ;)
Answer
You could but you would want to use less. Coconut oil can be overpowering, extremely rich, and high in calories. It might change the texture and the way the cake bakes. You might have to cook it for more or less time.
Do a little research on working with coconut oil and see what is said about it. Go to food sites and blogs or type "cooking with coconut oil" or "coconut oil with cake mix".

Coconut Oil|QUESTION?
Sleep
I have bought a product from NOWsolutions, a 207 mL thing of Coconut Oil.
It is directed for hair & skin, but it says it is considered "food-grade."
Can I eat it? It doesn't say in suggested uses that I should, BUT IT SAYS CONSIDERED FOOD GRADE!!!!!!!
Answer
Great stuff for your skin - hair I don't know. As to eating it, it's OK to use for food. In some cultures food is sauteed in coconut oil but the flavor is fairly distinctive so you may not want that flavor. One thing it is really good for is about 1 tablespoon to a couple of ounces of melted chocolate instead of shortening to make it shine better when using it to coat something. Prevents that sort of dusty look after you have melted chocolate and it rehardens.
