If I understand the meaning you are aiming at, the standard English is:

Can I also say Lucille doesn't want to deal with vagabonds?

Yes, but the meaning has changed.

Lucille doesn't want to associate with vagabonds. (She will not "friend" them, have a drink with them, go to their parties, etc.)
Lucille doesn't want to deal with vagabonds. (She will not buy stuff from them, she will not hire them to do some work, she will not sell to them, etc.)
