Here we go. When canned air is sprayed out, the air is expelled from the can. This removes heat from the can. Since the canned air is under pressure and there is more air in the can than whats surrounding the can, the inside temperature lessens as more air is expelled, removing more heat than the can can get from its ambient environment. The more you spray, the cooler the can can get and even ice up. It works just like a minerature air conditioner.

Yes, you can freeze them although I don't see the benefit if they are already canned.

I do not know whether or not the can might rupture when frozen but I believe that only happens with carbonated or fermented products that are canned.
