You could do that when the lights are on, for sure. That's what I like to do. But, during lights out, you'll want to close the room up and have a fan or two moving air around. If your tent is in a room with a door, you can leave the tent partially open, turn the room's light off, and just close the door. As long as there isn't too much light coming from a window or something.
I hope this helps.
