Yeah, can't see why not. I guess it depends on where the fx are in the chain and I'd say there's probably some engineers that might frown on it but I say go for it. I'm always messing around sending vocal takes back into guitar fx. Overdrive, Tremolo, Delay and a little Phasing usually works nice.

You would probably have to bring your own leads, because the enginner would probably only have the standard XLR leads which dont go into pedals.

It will work but your taking a balanced lead to an unbalanced pedeal and then out

A better way to do it is to run direct to desk and then hook your fx pedals off an aux on the desk

There's also dedicated effects pedals for vocals out there that are probably all balanced leads.
