I'd not want to do that. Later electricians will find mauve, purple, fuscia
and olive wires. And not know which one is hot, or neutral. For the one time

hot, ground, and neutral.


By code all the wires will need to be "tagged" - all neutrals white,
all lines black (or possibly red) - at BOTH ends.
