Yup, as long as your breaks and tires can hold the car back. This will all make way more sense after you get it installed and screw around a bit. I'm no pro drag racer, so a lot of the guys on here can give you better advice on staging techniques, ect. I recommend going to your track for test and tune day, and bring a notebook. Write down everything (air pressure, RPM, shift points, weather, ect). Write down how each change effects your time slip. The last T&T I did we brought my friends GN that he had never taken to the track. We started with a high 12 second smoke show, and ended the day with a mid 10. We really didn't play with the car much. Mostly just him learning how to launch, keep it hooked up, and playing with shift points.
