It can...however it shouldn't be a long term solution. There are plenty of posts about this. Some guys have had no issues but for the majority, best case is a cracked tire carrier, worst case is jacking your tailgate up.

I've run mine for 2 yrs now with offroading and zero problems..... That said I will one day get a tire carrier. Mind you I never use the tailgate I access everything from the back doors 99% of the time.
