Maybe worth a try, but I think that the season for the chill has come and gone. Also a consideration is that the sudden jolt might be damaging if it is too cold if the plants aren't acclimated. Mine get whatever nature throws at them, so they have been experiencing the lowering of night temps since fall. It's not a sudden shock but rather a natural transition. For next year, maybe consider not sheltering at all, unless you have have serious frost on the way (not common in most of Texas but does happen occasionally)
