Using a cheap greenhouse to grown lawn segments in winter

Hi, we recently redid a lousy part of the lawn. It's has shady and sunny areas. After aeration and their late seeding (mid october) the area is still mostly mud with some small sprouts

So the question is, can I use a cheap or homemade greenhouse (a portable one) to put on top of a segment of the lawn for a few weeks at a time during winter to extend the growing season? It's getting cold here in the mid-atlantic. Mostly growing fescue in the sunny redone parts, creeping red in the semi-shade, and poa trivialis in 3 extremely shady corners under the deck that only get morning sun. Obviously being drought intolerant they should need to grow roots before summer
