Yes, but sleeping bags compress underneath you on cots, reducing insulation. Add a sleeping pad or choose a cot with built-in padding for cold weather.
Measure both. Standard cots are 74-85" long. Check your tent's floor dimensions and peak height—you need to sit up on the cot.
Better than pads, since the frame spans irregularities. Some cots have adjustable leg heights for slopes.
