Yes, but get someone to help.

Stick the end of the bleeder into the reservoir, loosen the valve and SLOWLY pump on the pedal, circulating the fluid through the system back into the reservoir until you don't see anymore bubbles.

You may have to add fluid.

Nope, in fact it will be easier to do with the motor cold.
