Question of lighting based on temp.

I have read about all of the overwintering threads and have not seen this question answered. Most people it seems either winter conifers outside with mulch & windbreak or in a cold frame with some filtered light.

If I overwinter my evergreens (boxwood, chameacyparis, black pine, mugo, juniper) in an unheated garage with no windows, zone 5, Indianapolis area, does it seem logical or even directionally correct to turn on a flourescent full spectrum grow light when temps hit 40 degrees or above? This my 1st winter with bonsai trees.
