Very doubtful indeed.

Does it have a linear, perhaps thyristor control of power, ie like a light
dimmer but for a heater? This circuit might not like things not being
completely symetrical or having varying voltage with load.

I am coming to the conclusion that the halogen heater has some intelligence
built in. If things are not 100% it does not work.
