Why not try it and report back to us whether it worked or not?

<script type="text/javascript">
window.newWindowHtml = [
'<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN">',
'<html>',
'<head>',
'<title>Test Window</title>',
'</head>',
'<body onload="opener.document.write(\'hi there\');">',
'</body>',
'</html>'
].join('\n');
window.open('javascript:opener.newWindowHtml');
</script>

Apparently it does work.

However it should not :) You forgot to escape the ETAGO delimiters, hence
it is not Valid HTML. And one also should specify the system identifier
in a DOCTYPE declaration rather than either assuming the UA will use a
reference file or force it into Quirks/Compatibility Mode. It would be
also useful to specify the default scripting language for event handler
attributes no matter if some UAs tested with do not care about that.
