    Don't see why not. (They did make AC units for the Aircooled engines as well, I believe.)
    It just takes longer to accomplish the impossible.

    vintage air also would work, ( hot rod kits)

    plannning and routing the lines would be the hard part mostly

    I've seen bugs with generators and window units...

    No reason it couldn't work as long as you could turn the compressor and get enough air flow to the evaporator and condenser.
