It might work, but in the same way that it does with dogs. You might get some traits you want, but they will all be as inbred as a Bulldog. Probably would knock 15 years off average lifespan.

The more mixed up your genes are, the less likely you are to have health defects.

You'd need to start with a large enough sample and be very careful about who and how you breed them to limit damage from inbreeding. But again, it's something that's firmly in the “it would probably work, but if we start doing it we’ve already become the villains” bin.
