It's not impossible, just harder to do. Your ultimate judge is going to be your ears, and as Trev says, if what you're hearing is not what is actually recorded, then that makes things that bit more difficult. It can be mitigated to an extent by being *very* familiar with how a good mix sounds in your space and good metering can also help to an extent. But a bad space will boost some frequencies, and mask or lose others and no amount of knowing how a good mix sounds in your space is going to help if the problem frequency is inaudible.
