Can hot keys be used to refresh a neuron and disperse maturity?

I’m looking for a better way for managing a neuron that I created using ECDSA signed HTTPS outcalls.

The HTTPS outcalls are expensive as they consume more cycles, so rather than managing my neuron this way, i created a proxy neuron, and set it as a followee of the ECDSA signed neuron under the MANAGE_NEURON topic. This has allowed me to manage the ECDSA signed neuron via the proxy neuron.

This isn’t method isn’t ideal though, since this requires the proxy neuron to submit a proposal in order to manage the ECDSA signed neuron and this action costs 0.01 ICP each time.

I’m considering using hot keys to manage the ECDSA signed neuron, rather than doing so via a proposal.

I want to know if I’d be able to use the proxy neuron to spawn new neurons from the ECDSA signed neuron’s maturity if i set the proxy neuron as a hot key of the ECDSA signed neuron? Also, would I be able to able to `C
