Not......... You can not legally plumb in fuel at the pressure hot head requires to operate (full tank pressure).
Best option is to get LONG hose from either industrial supplier like McMaster-Carr. Part number 7976A24
McMaster-Carr
Or from MR. Heater, Stock number F273702

Long hose may also be available in camping supply sections of Sears or WallyWorld or any local sporting goods store who carries camping products.
With this method you can keep tank OUTSIDE and run hose through door or window in temporary fashion only for time you actually will be using torch. When torch is off, hose should be disconnected and removed. There is nothing in NFPA codes to prevent you from doing this in a temporary manner. But then again there is nothing saying it is perfectly ok either... Its a gray area in the safety codes. Also put something in door or window (door stop) to keep door or window from accidentally slamming closed on hose and possibly damaging it...
