We study two-species Bose-Einstein condensates confined in quasi-two-dimensional (quasi-2D) optical lattices at finite temperatures, employing the Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov theory with the Popov approximation. We examine the role of thermal fluctuations in the ground-state density distributions and the quasiparticle mode evolution. At zero temperature, the geometry of the ground state in the immiscible domain is side by side. Our results show that the thermal fluctuations enhance the miscibility of the condensates, and at a characteristic temperature the system becomes miscible with rotationally symmetric overlapping density profiles. This immiscible-miscible transition is accompanied by a discontinuity in the excitation spectrum, and the low-lying quasiparticle modes such as slosh mode become degenerate at the characteristic temperature.
