Wouldn't think so. Metal to wood needs a little give in the
adhesive. Wood moves, metal doesn't. Try some of the construction
cements that come in a caulking tube or silicone adhesive. If it's
like lead sheet covering a roof vent or the like, lead-head nails are
the way.

As usual, I recommend Goop for dissimilar material bonding.
Pick a flavor.
For this, probably plumbers Goop since it's a lot less viscous
that the others. That would help make a uniform film thickness.
