No, not really. Some people have tried it with and without success.
You’re going to have to make some changes to the THC settings in Firecontrol. It’s needs to be able to respond faster to changes in voltage and speed up the Z axis travel speed when making height adjustments.
I’m sure there is a thread here, where the poster made changes that worked for corrugated.

Somebody on here has done it, and they posted a YouTube video of it. Yes they had to tweak the THC settings but they did get it to work with really really good success.

I am just spitballing here:
What if you reduced the amperage pretty low so that the cut could be slowed significantly.
You could increase THC reaction time by decreasing the sampling size.

Corrugated Galvanized Steel 31-Gauge i will have to look at my settings when i get home seems like it trys then other times it seems to burn threw to quick and loses the arc
Fire control has a long first pierce delay. I always get a error on first pierce.
I cut the hearts at 20 amps best I remember and not too fast I will have to look at the speed for that tool.
You do need to go into the THC settings and change the z axis speed.
If you are cutting and losing arc definitely override you speed and try a faster cut as well as turn down your amps some.
