No, I don't think so. Most strains will not flower until they measure at least 10-12 hours of darkness. I can't remember the exact science behind it, but there is a chemical that builds up during darkness that needs to reach a critical point before the flowering response is activated. If light is introduced before this point, the chemical is depleted and the plant remains in veg mode.

Or something like that.
