I wouldn't recommend it because they give off a good amount of heat and it is healthy to allow your dragon to cool off at night. Unless your house temp drops below 65f at night, you don't need that sort of light.

black light can disturb a dragons sleep, if you need nighttime heat try a ceramic heat emitter, that is if your house falls below 60-65 at nightime.. otherwise no heatsource is needed.
