Yes, I have seen that setup on a slant 6. We have one on the old trolley, but it's not working right. Remember that there's a reason the engineers don't set up the engines to always draw warm intake air, which would be easy to do. In fact, they go to some trouble, even more on newer vehicles, to draw the coolest intake air they can get, sometimes with fairly elaborate duct-work to get it. The reason is that a colder charge holds more oxygen and more fuel, and results in greater power out of the engine. If you set it up to draw nothing but warm air all the time, you'll lose power.
