You could, but if you have some 100% acrylic solid stain, you would get better results since you wouldn't need to thin it nearly as much as a paint. If you have to use paint, instead of diluting with water, dilute with a latex paint conditioner like Flo-trol as much as possible. Water will break down the binder if used to over thin the paint causing the solids to powder over time.

Even better, use fabric dye unless you are trying to achieve a design that requires paint.
