I don't see why not.... what's the temp rating on it? I'd just be worried about it catching fire, but I think it's fairly high temp safe.
What's the hole from? I think you can get a rubber grommet/blockoff thingie for that, or use fiberglass resin/mat or peel-n-seal type of stuff.

It works, won't burn, but will turn nasty and start breaking up after a while. It also expands like MAD and will possibly end up where you don't want it. I highly do NOT recommend it unless you're using it as sound deadening in parts of the car that're hard to get to.

...main question is, why do you have a fist sized hole?
fiberglass mat you'd use with resin, it'll cure rock hard. Not terribly structural, but it beats a gaping hole, and it's waterproof. No need for bondo, unless you wanted to smooth it out after and make it look like it never existed.
or you could do it the hard way, and weld a plate in.
