I would not... I have a set of those but find them too cumbersome to handle and to take along on a trip. And you don't really need that kind of length / lever / force to lift the tire from the rim... on a regular tire (TKC, Enduro, T63)

Maybe something like these would do (same as Minky's old spanner?):

Breaking the bead of the rear tire is however a different story
