I would say yes. Are you separating those two pieces with one hand quickly?

I used way to much zip ties and duct tape on gear during the early OIF years. But it worked.

I cannot do that with the girth hitch but it's quite a bit more secure, weighs less, costs almost nothing, etc. What's the scenario for escaping the sling that quickly? If a break-away action is needed a side release buckle or open tail are fast and work under tension.

You can if you have a fastex buckle like this…

That's the way my slings are, that I made, a fastex buckle serves as the tightening/loosening mechanism, with the fringe benefit of quick release if so needed.
'Bout the only time I use it though is separating lower from upper for maintenance.
