Can I just use Boston Advance Step 2 for cleaning AND conditioning?

Hi everyone, I'm having a bit of an issue here. Currently on vacation and have very limited (i.e. none) access to any RGP solutions, including the Clear Care H2O2 I typically use. I only have the Boston Advanced Step 2 Conditioning Solution (or well, the Walmart equivalent) which I typically use to wet the lenses before insertion.

My question is, in terms of emergency, can I use this solution to both wet the lenses AND ALSO soak the lenses in them during the day? From what I gathered online, Step 1 is the "cleaning" solution that you wipe the lenses with a few seconds each day and also the one you use weekly for deeper cleaning. For a 5 day trip such as mine is this safe, or at least low-risk, enough for me to only use Step 2?
