Maybe so. The problem with spinners is and has always been latency, which is greatly reduced with SSD without moving parts. Throughput is not so much of an issue. There are however other variables within every system, so I would first do a dummy stress test (record X tracks of silent audio for Y minutes using Z sampling rate) to determine if it is suitable in itself for what you want to do with it.
