I tried it and it worked great. I will never tear paper again.

Update: I used this technique and it does work great! Thanks for posting this link Maria. The technique was easy to do and I was able to use the same piece of paper multiple times. This will become my new method of choice when paper piecing. Here's a picture of the block I did with this method. It is for our County Fair Quilt Block Contest. The provide the fabric and the entrants select a pattern.
