The plate is pretty fucking thin and there's not much heat transfer so I imagine it would be possible to rig something up, but you would need to do some better calculations than me to figure out the forces it would experience and what joining methods would work. Ablation isn't a problem if you spray it with a bit of oil before each shot, but the plate has to be able to take ~50000g maximum acceleration during the shot without splitting apart. Probably it would be fine with some good welding, but I dunno much about metallurgical black magic.
