Unequivocally no. Bombardment units might fire open sights in the next hex, but not in the same hex. They just don't have the maneuverability or the elevation to fight in the same hex.
As well....to put it to the existing mechanic....most of these larger guns have AT capability....
and I don't think that was indirect fire ......and it certainly is possible at 1 hex---but the rules even allow AT fire within
the assault hex, at tanks in the assault hex...
So---if they can drop depression to fire at tanks in the AT hex...
I think they could do the same thing with HE shells....
The DF would be something other then the BF--- but I think we have comparisons with DF/BF ratios with other
units which had duel roles (russian 76.2mm for example)
So, I do hereby Equivocate and question your hypothesis....
