I doubt it unless they had just been laid but I would try.

Yeah you got nothing to lose by trying! If they have not been there too long, and assuming they were fertile, they may hatch.

THANKS ALL FOR YOU EXPERIENCE. ONE HAS DEVELOPED A NATURAL LOOKING SHELL TO IT BUT THE REST ARE STILL RUBBERY IN TEXTURE SO LOOKS LIKE HOPE FOR ONE. THANKS TOM

It could be that all the rubbery ones were infertile anyway. Sometimes snakes almost seem to know that their eggs are not good. I've seen many times infertile clutches just scattered all over the cage instead of the nest box. But as always there are exceptions so it's not written in stone.
