It really helps to have a big house with a removable roof to check for any dampness in and around the nest. I do that when the hamster is not in the cage.

I should have known that you would have thought of ventilation when you mentioned that you'd clean while he's in the tube. I do apologise.

Back to your question: yes, i think that is doable depending on how he reacts. If he gets very stressed and frantic because he can't get out of the tube you may only be able to clean the part of his habitat he wants cleaned and do the rest while he's back in his house and probably sulking.
