I would not recommend it. First, you should let him get used to his/her new environment. Then on the 2nd day, you hand feed him/her a treat. You can probably hold your little furball on the 3rd or 4th day.

it depends on how they react to you. on your second or third day, put your hand in the cage with a piece of food and hold it out to your hamster. keep it in there for two or three mins and if he/she doesnt come to you, try it the next day. keep doing this until it sincerely trusts you to just hold it like a daily thing.

How old should your hamster be until you can hold it?
When I bought my first hamster from a big pet store, they said to leave him for 5 days to settle in. I did just this, but after that it was incredibly hard to tame him. I had this same issue with my next hamster. I would advise that you leave him for a day or two (judge how settled he is) before stroking him and introducing touch. Then play it by ear but don't leave it for too long!!
