Probably not, unless the seed is extremely small in size. 12 pounds of normal size seed is only going to be about 18,000 seeds, and you really need at least 25,000 seeds for the crop to be truly successful.

How many bushels of field corn seed does it take to plant one acre of crop land?

Most farmers in the U.S. plant field corn by the seed count, not by the bushel. However, since most farmers plant somewhere around 30,000 seeds per acre, you can figure the bushels thus: 30,000 seeds divide by 2,000 seeds per pound equals about 15 pounds divided by 56 pounds of corn per bushel equals about 1/4 bushel per acre. There are a great many factors, including seed germination percentage, which could change that figure.
