No. A DIRECTV dish can receive but cannot transmit signals to the HughesNet satellite. You will need the two-way satellite connection provided by the special HughesNet dish. HughesNet and DIRECTV are affiliated for marketing purposes, but their respective satellite services are unique and each requires its own equipment.
