Campagnolo cassettes do not fit Shimano freehubs, if that is what you mean. SRAM cassettes do.

No its a campagnolo freehub. I was told that campagnolo is not compatable with shimano. I have miche 707 race wheels with a campagnolo freehub. can i change the freehub to shimano ?

So, ideally, you'd like a way of using your Campagnolo cassette with your Campagnolo freehub and for it to work with Shimano Tiagra shifters and rear derailleur? I think a Shift Mate is what you need! You can buy them here in the UK. (Make sure you buy the right one!)

It's a complete replacement freehub, isn't it? As far as I can make out, the inside would fit your Campag-style hub and the outside would fit your Shimano cassette.
I thought it would be interesting to see if I could find what you were looking but I think the best thing is if you phone the shop and have a chat with them to make sure it will work for you since it certainly isn't cheap.

Imho while there is a chance the probability of a Campag/Fulcrum freehub fitting a Miche hub is not good. The whole hub/freehub interface including the pawls/springs would need to be a marriage made in heaven (which in this case likely meaning Miche badge engineering Campag's hub) for it to work.
The 707 does come in a Shimano freehub version, which would mean that Miche will likely have parts. The question is whether the respective hubs are identical (likely) and whether they would sell you one (also likely). Questions though remain as to whether it is economical and whether it is really what you want.
Assuming you have indexed shifting surely your choice of cassette and therefore freehub/hub/wheel is decided by your shifters (what are they?). While you can space your Shimano cassette to Campag spacing and vice versa, it is often not an economical or trouble-free option. If I were you I would list all the bits I have and see what will and will not work together before buying any more bits.

Or to put it another way, a shimano crankset will work with a campag cassette, BUT the campag cassette will only work with a campag rear derraileur, unless you use the shiftmate ColinJ mentioned. In general the crankset isn't the issue if it is for the correct chain width (or narrower). There are some exceptions and work arounds for 'Shimergo' combinations tourers use but they are mainly to use campag shifters with shimano derrailleurs in order to be able to fit bar bags. There is also allegedly a frankenstein mix of shimano, Sram and Campag, with the shifters, derraileurs and cassette each from one system that i've seen reported as working, but can't remember which way round it is.
