If you're OK disabling half the cores:
Assume half core = half power = max 150W heat load. It's not going to be linear, for sure, but just for proof of concept: delta T = (1 - (150 / 430)) * 69;...
It's a long time since I played with TECs, but if I'm remembering my formulas right almost certainly the answer is 'no'. Long answer is 'maybe' depending on how much money you want to spend.
