My question is: could I install the AC on the lead of the attic access,

No, but you might install it in the usual way through a wall into
a stairwell that's open to the attic. In wintertime, close the attic door
and sprinkle water on the basement floor with a soaker hose and a solenoid
valve and a 60% humidistat and rotate the AC 180 degrees to warm the room
like a heat pump with a 3:1 COP :-)

You think wetting the basement floor with a soaker hose to cool an
upstairs room is sound advice?

To WARM the room, nitwit :-)

Ever hear of mold, condensation on cold pipes, wood rot, rust, etc?

Sure. Happens over 60% RH.
