I have done this with box turtles but was fairly close to duplicating where they would brumate for the winter anyways.
I know Tiger salamanders across their huge range are found brumating in a variety of conditions, some real and some artificial, so part of me says they would be resourceful enough to survive the habitat you would create. Another part of me says you should conduct some sort of experiment for the first winter, maybe duplication your conditions in a large garage can and sticking it in an old fridge and see if they burrow. I used to brumate tigers in a fridge and never lost one.

Currently keeping a small collection of various Gonyosoma. Both G. janseni and G. oxycephala.
