Yes, but if your motor is connected to your winch shaft throughout the shooting movement then your shooter will be forced to pull your motor as it moves forward. This will be a considerable source of drag. This is why most designs use some sort of shifter which has a neutral gear.
If you know of another way to remove the drag from the system though, that would be great.
