You can get a cold joint that way. I went through the through-hole solder training for lead free solder, for manufacturing aerospace components back in the day. #1 thing they teach is not to do things like that, you need to heat the component and let the solder flow to the joint around the component, never heat the solder itself or pre-solder, etc.
