It is possible, but not very wise. What will probably happen is the court trustee will ask the BK be denied. Any high priced or luxury items bought 30-60 days before filing send "red flags" to the trustee. Which indicates the lack of sincerity on the debtor to honor their debts. IMO I would not do this.
