Yeah you can definitely raise those hands. Nothing wrong with that. Only issue is that there's 6 limpers in front so you'll have to make it huge if you wanna take it down or try to get HU. If you get called, which is very likely at 1/2, the pot will be bloated and you'll hate most flops. And you risk running into a l/r by an EP limper. Or someone could spaz out with AT or 44 and you'll be forced to fold to their shove.
Meanwhile, you can limp and set mine with direct odds. And flopping a set multiway tends to result in a huge pay off.
