Yeah.

Yes.



I realize you said "...that I can convert... but the main thing about using a spare bedroom is it would take major modifications. It would be impossible to maintain proper humidity levels with walls made of drywall, plus, the humidity would deteriorate the drywall and you'd most likely end up with mold/fungus all throughout your house.



Not only that, but it would also be tough to maintain an acceptable ambient temperature in large areas without costing an arm and a leg in power bills.



It can be done, you just have to think "really big enclosure." Water proof walls, ceiling, floor, large heat source (forced-air heating that we use in our homes dry out the air), etc...



Later!
