Sure. If only it were feasible.

A big issue with this is it puts into question whom the real enemy really is.

For instance, while Fast and Furious was pushing guns into Mexico (and even being told to stand down, during what was suppose to be a Sting). Political leaders in the United States are pushing for harsher gun control laws.

If (whatever aspect of government) is controlling this faction while on the other side of the border using it for political purposes then we as Americans (and Mexican citizens) are the Pawns.

Edit: this game of "controlling the enemy" has been played many times, and I cannot name one instance where it has actually worked. (see: mujahideen, Isis, al qaeda, Taliban, etc..)
