You could probably do it, but at the end you wouldn't have a servlet engine.
The spec EXPLICITLY states that java.io.tmpdir must be writable. Are you allowing file uploads? Commons-fileupload uses that area for disk file upload. Are you creating PDF output? Some packages use the area for temporary file space.
