Sure, it all depends how big the slot is and how clean you need it to be.

Fwiw, I just tried sticking a dremel 1/8” shank routing bit on my drill. The V-shaped slot on the board was done with a chisel. The mess of sawdust was an attempt with the 2000rpm drill. It is very difficult to control it at all between the weight of the drill and the relatively low RPM with high torque, and you’re going to have a very hard time getting a flat smooth channel because there’s no real depth control and you have the heavy drill pushing down on it. Also the shape of the drill and handle lends to poor control. The rotary tool with those bits is way smoother.
