I wouldn't. Lemon extract is much stronger, and contains alcohol. You wouldn't get the right flavour at all, I'd say.

If you absolutely must, I'd mix the lemon extract with water to a 50:50 ratio.

Maybe try a tiny bit to taste but nothing like real lemons for a lemon drizzle cake, put that coat on :-)
