You could. I've been thinking of this, vs a vacuum actuated way.
Got a box of vacuum servoes off eBay.

For open, probably just a comparator and reed relay. For closed,
you'd probably want a timer function so you don't cook the motor
or apply power to limit switches (which get wet and might corrode
quicker if always-energized) any longer than necessary.

It probably adds up to less than $20 in parts, if you like that kind
of project.

What I don't like about the electrics is, it takes like 5 seconds to
open and close. That's halfway down track before any help.
Vacuum would be more instant-gratification.
