Can I install Duster headliner without removing windshield?

I've stripped everything I can from the interior of my '71 Duster and hope to have the car painted in a few weeks. I've purchased a new headliner and the logistics will be tough to get the car to an upholstry shop to install the headliner while the windshield and rear window are out. I've cut the edges off of the window gaskets that overlap the headliner. Can I do a decent job of installing the headliner before the windshield and rear window are removed for the paint job?

The headliner is suspended from 4 bows and I can see "teeth" around the edges that apparantly hold the headliner - plus there are some metal clips that help hold it along the left and right sides. A local shop told me that it is necessary to glue the headliner around the windows while the windows are out.
