Perhaps, if it had been a recess appointment. But it wasn't.

The Supreme Court in its 2014 decision in the case of National Labor Relations Board v. Noel Canning ruled that the Senate must be in recess for at least three consecutive days before the president can make recess appointments.

Tuesday, Nov 06, 2018 The Senate convened at 4:00 p.m. for a pro forma session.
