With the original Bridgestone ditchfinders, yes, with decent road tyres I wouldn't risk it
A few people have bought cars with broken CVs, maybe from 4wd on dry tarmac, most of us wouldn't try it as we know what might happen :laugh:
If it suddenly breaks, go back to the last thing that you did before it broke and start looking there

I couldn't remember what I used. Don't know what others use but I tend to use silicone sealant.
Don't forget to fit a new shaft oil seal.
In my case it was a day's job. :ohmy:
