It wouldn't be stable - the front wheel would ride slightly up the front roller and the rear wheel would fall to the ground.

EDIT - if you had the rollers far enough apart, it might be stable, but then the bike would be sitting pretty low between the rollers and the force on the rollers would be very high.
