Maybe once! ;) Serriously though the answer is a resounding "NO". The pressures of the .460 greatly exceed those recommended for the 45 Colt/410 barrel. I highly discourage the desire to test this. The results at the least will ruin a nice firearm and at most can kill you. Save your pennies and buy a gun built for it.
