The answer is yes, you definitely could. The spacing is good down there, and if you drill a hole in the rocker from the inside below the front cab mount, you can pass the wiring directly into the cowl and up in the kick panel.
You could also get away with a switch mounted into the door pillar below the lower hinge without space issues (if you hadn't painted yet  )
It looks like I'm going to be welding a pocket / cup into the pillar between the hinges and mounting the switch directly; I just wasn't happy with the various alternatives I've tried the last couple days. The C-clips didn't grip the switch well enough for me to be content with it.
