I haven't tried. But in this kind of position there are two issues: Short- term tactics, which the program will excel at. Long-term positional piece placement which the program will fail miserably at. IE this is a pretty fine tight-rope to walk. You have to know where some pieces belong way before it becomes obvious why. Computers don't do so hot there.
