No. Have a shop perform it. It is a special liquid that is used at the radiator top, and can tell if gasket is blown.

OR/AND....the radiator top can be sniffed by an exhaust gas analyser. Hydrocarbons means exhaust gasses in the cooling system....means BHG.

PS: Your symptoms are exactly what mine were, $800, my labor, 2 1/2 yrs ago.
