Not unless you wanna stretch your fingers like never before and or pivoting and shifting more than on a regular tuned bass.
EADG from the bottom is the standard now for 100 years or so but in use even longer. Low B on a 5er and low C on an Extension 4'er. That's what 99+% of the bass players in the world use.
