Minwax's Polycrylic is not polyurethane and is much softer than traditional
oil-based polyurethanes. Flecto's water-based Varathane is much harder than
Polycrylic. I've used many gallons of Polycrylic on cabinets because I like
the way it applies and settles, but I use Varathane on shelves for it's
toughness.

They should be compatible. Sand the Polycrylic with 320 grit, then apply a
coat or two of Varathane.
