The specifications can be found
here, and as long as the pulsing falls within the specifications, there is nothing inherently wrong with pulsing the relay on and off.
Since no expectations as to duration and repetition rate were provided, I chose somewhat reasonable values to use in my example. If a small motor were connected, the relay would probably survive at least couple days of competition. If a large motor were connected, then it would probably be good to have a box of spare relays on hand.
