no, thats a bad idea if you want a smooth good tasting smoke.
you want to slowly dry it in a cool dark spot with about 50% humidity for at least a week. if you speed up the process you'll lose terpines, potency, and the smoke will be harsh as fuck.

NO.
If you want to dry buds quickly you're going to water cure them.

Yeah you want the opposite. When most of the initial moiture is gone, you want to dry them nice & slow. For my personal stash I use the paper bag slow dry method followed by jar curing.
If I do hang dry all the way vs. slow bag dry, the aromatic differential is night & day
