Truth is, I'm not in any way a medical professional nor a scientist, but I would imagine that with a proper warm-up and some trial and error, you can roll out of the rack and get into heavy squatting just fine. Now, that being said, is it something you will like or will it work for your body? Who knows, just try it and see. Use good form and warm-up thoroughly and you'll probably be fine from an injury standpoint, and performance wise it will be up to how you feel after doing it for a few weeks.
Can it make a difference between early morning or later in the day? From what I have gathered, maybe, maybe not, and quite possibly the only people it makes an appreciable difference in are most likely those operating on a much higher level than most of us and it is probably a slight difference at that. So, in short, experiment and see how it goes.
