Probably not a good idea. A big part is being able to hear when something (like a car) comes up behind you. Bone conductive would be better for that, and can still wear a hat to keep your ears warm, but still hear if there's any danger. Sanoto is the common brand, Open Run could work as well, but it depends on your location and what's being sold.
bone conduction has never been loud enough for me to handle a lot of outside noise. It works well if its relatively quite.
I have used aftershokz bone conduction for years and years on the bike, running, around town etc and it has always been possible to hear except for in extreme conditions like 70kmph gusts of wind or something.
