You can paint over thinset but it will look like painted thinset/cement. If that is the look you want, then go for it.

Otherwise, you can drywall mud it back to a flatter surface.

But can drywall mud be placed on top of thinset?

Yes, but I would use slightly wetter mud for the first coat as thinset soaks in the moisture.
