Possibly, but likely not very well. There's a similar question about sponges, which would probably work better. The problem with cotton balls is that they have little coherence; the much denser egg will likely just shove them out of the way on impact and slip between them, so unless it's an extremely thick layer they're probably not going to help much. Cotton batting could work, but cotton balls (not stuck together in some way) are not going to do a great job of protecting the egg.
