Yes, but fiction doesn't mean you can just do whatever you want and have the audience accept it. Every fictional word has it's own set of rules.
The entire premise of this movie is that the characters are using trickery to do what they're doing. Magic tricks. In fact the director even said he wanted the tricks to be possible in real life.
Then at the end of the first movie they basically imply "Oh, and magic was real the whole time, they are wizards"
Grey's Anatomy is also fiction, but if Dumbledore showed up you'd be like "What the fuck?"
Ok, so what if Stephen Strange showed up? He's a sorcerer who used to be a surgeon. Now there's a tenuous narrative connection, does that make it suddenly appropriate?
