Possible, though the air coming out of the tank is not nearly so
hot as that coming out of the compressor. A friend built a cooling
"radiator" to go between the compressor outlet and the tank,
and we ended up brazing everything for just this reason.
If you're cooling at the tank outlet, this is not likely a huge
concern. You want to have a condensing filter before the hard
line, anyway :-)
