With the right wire, I would think so. At my old work, we used a TIG to seal cans that would be put on a Hot Isostatic Press. Since MIG tends to put more filler in the weld than TIG, I would expect the weld to be stronger than TIG (although not as pretty). And if the weld can stand the pressure that the HIP puts on it without leaking, I'm pretty sure it can handle your little Eheim.
