Principially no bad idea, but technically. Electricity and humidity are no good friends....especially on high voltage ignitions...
I recommend to use a can of ice spray instead. Much easier to carry and to handle...and even safer. And furthermore several times usable to proof that the problem is a temperature problem (cool down ignition coil and box with the spray, go on and - if issue returns, repeat)
