Could. I've done it a few times in NJ when it was really humid and didn't have the orange peel like you are showing.

I also made an indoor spray booth for small parts.

I got an appliance box and cut it open. I screwed a wooden box frame into the side of the open top and attached some slats to that.

This allowed me to hang parts on some fishing line with large hooks. It also gave me a sturdy frame to place a 20" box fan to top of. I taped cheap furnace filters on to the incoming side of the fan to pull the air out of the box.

After I sprayed the parts, I would turn on the heat lamp. Inside the box, it would get really toasty so that helped cure the paint.
