I'm sure it will work...
When the tuna are on the surface chowing, you don't need much..and a popper is the gold standard, but they'll eat anything making a flash or a splash and moving fast...I've had fun before on my yellowtail rod, taken the hooks off a white plug with no eyes (which is as plain a lure as you can get), cast it out and wind wind wind...and took me maybe 20-30 minutes to get that lure back to me, almost getting spooled in the process, giving my grandwave's carbon drag washers a good polish and completely ruining my line trying to slow fish down by clamping the line on my rod handle...What a blast! As one fish would realize that this thing it had ate was not a fish, it would spit it out and the next tuna would grab it and zoom off 50m of line before it let go and next woud grab it and so on...So I mean tuna are fast so you have to cast way ahead of them ,or get their attention with big splashes so they come over to take a look...so casting you'd have to have them balling up bait or busting on the surface and get a good shot ahead of them, then for sure it will get swallowed. If it's for trolling as a lipless rapala, and it swims at decent speed, then ja it will catch fish. But a pink and white one would catch more...and a spreader bar and a big fat squid at the back would catch even more...so use in addition to the known winners, not in lieu of.
