Yes, but it won't be perfect since it won't be warm. Bolt the starter on and crank it with a battery.
IheartSTI might have broken bell housing bits to make it easy to bolt one up, but you should be able to Jury rig something otherwise!
Or turn it with the crankshaft bolt.
With and/or without preoiling the cylinders. It will at least give you relative numbers if you go around a couple times.
