Not a good idea. Bottom paint should be thinned as little as possible
and never by more than 10%. Too much thinner changes the structure of
the paint when it dries and cures, which is critical to how it works.
Not thinning it at all is optimum, but most thin it SLIGHTLY to make it
easier to roll on.

Listers,
I’m considering the idea of spray-painting my bottom paint this season
with my usual Petit Vivid bottom paint (I know a thinner is needed to
apply).
Has anyone done this? I’m looking to see some time and energy, but am
concerned about wasting paint, accidentally painting the topsides, or
painting someone else’s boat or nearby car.
Any suggestions or advice would be greatly appreciated. It’s 67
degrees in New York right now and I’m getting the itch.
All the best,
Edd
