I guess it's possible.
You would want to strip the wires and twist together first though, using te glue as a means of stopping them from untwisting.
Then use a little tape to stop any chance of shorting out.

I use masking tape for what I do
or Duct tape.
Super glue can cause some issues and removing it involves some nasty chemicals. A hot glue gun is a better option.

Careful with that duct tape. Some brands have a conductive backing...

now why would they do that :|
Because duct tape is designed for hvac ducting, not the inside of electronics.
Use either electrical tape or hot glue. Super glue can have corrosive effects on certain plastics.
