I don't believe so. Alcohol and oil do not mix. You need to cut through any dried residue that might be there, so a stronger solvent would do a better job. Lighter fluid, electric motor cleaner, and brake cleaner are some choices. Cleaning with boiling propane, as has been suggested by Mark Kelly, will get into the pores of sintered bronze, if perfect is your goal. WD-40 will coat the surface, and that is not necessarily what you want. In any case, it would be a good idea to have the bearing assembly out of the turntable and in a well ventilated space.
