You could, but one must ask why?
In my experance I have found dirt to be one of the slowest ways to root clones.
Just think you would be better off rooting in a hydroponic meduim.
Rockwall
Perlight/Vermiculight
Water
Air
That list is not in any order.
I root my clones in water, I use a storage container filled with water, place a air stone in the bottom, and place the cutting in a polastireen sheet, and just flote it on the surface.
I usely have 95% sucsess, and all plants are ready to transplant in 9 days.
Agian this isn't the best system, just the one I like to use.
