NO! Not to beat a dead horse, . . .
This would be like shooting a .308 in a .30/06 or a 7mm/08 in a 7mm mag. The shorter cases would not seat in the throat/chamber and would case major issues!!

The only cartridge that I know that can be interchanged is a 38 specialcan be shot out of a.357 mag chamber but not the other way around.
.44 Spc in a .44 Mag, .45 Colt in a .454 Casull in a .460 S&W Mag. There are a number of straight walled revolver cartridges that will shoot shorter, but otherwise dimensionally identical, cartridges. But the same is not the case with bottleneck rifle cartridges. If the headstamp doesn't match the barrel stamp, don't shoot it. When in doubt, don't do it.
