Can you use a water bottle to carry camp stove fuel?

My camp stove uses alcohol fuel and the recommended type is the yellow Heet bottles (Methyl Alcohol) , which if you look at the bottom of them they are labeled recycling symbol # 2 - HDPE (high density polyethylene).

I don't currently own a fuel bottle holder like the MSR ones, but I have tons of old cycling water bottles lying around, which these are labeled recycling symbol # 4 - LDPE (low density polyethylene).

Can I save a few bucks and reuse my water bottle to carry the the Methyl Alcohol?

Let me preempt the joke - "only if you want to accidentally drink fuel"
