If it has an adjustable speed and you run it slow, maybe. I would be concerned, though, about the plastic clogging up the rotary blade and it becoming nothing more than a round plastic disc with a wheel on the inside after a few cuts.
On a related note, my dad always warned me not grind too much aluminum on a grinding wheel for a similar reason in that the aluminum gets hot and instead of flying/burning off like steel some of the aluminum sinks into the grinding wheel, gets hot/cold/hot/cold and causes weak spots in the stone and it eventually comes flying off in your face.
