NO. Even if it worked that way, the trichs wouldn't break off in to the water, half of them would melt on to the plant matter, and if you're lucky you get some of them to melt in to the water. And then what? Wait for the water to cool only to find that you have no way of extracting all the trichomes because it's state of solidity was altered in such a way that they mixed with water.if it was hot, then let it cool???
