Can you paint a house that has pressed-board siding with paint labeled specifically for masonry?

I have 20 gallons of masonry paint that I was going to use to paint a house I ended up sellling. I still like the color, and I was wondering if I could paint my present house with it. This house has wooden window moldings, but is sided with some kind of pressed-board siding, like Masonite. I believe the paint is latex-based. Any suggestions?

      I think that you can do !!
      make a sample first before you apply to all
      I suggest to read and follow instructions written on painting containers you have specially if it is required priming or under coat ? or not . Then go ahead .
