Yup, it sure could, but over the last 25 years working with ball pythons I've learned that if you load them up with lots of large prey items, sooner or later they will fast (refuse food) in order to "catch up". Adult male ball pythons do fine on an adult mouse once a week.
FWIW, just because the speedometer on a car goes to 100mph doesn't mean that it was made to drive 100mph between traffic lights.
