Yes. The only thing missing in the diagram is a metering device in the defrost line. You don't want the defrost fuction to blast full discharge pressure into your evap. The pros use modulating pressure regulator valves. For my dehumidifier heater, i used a 1 foot piece of cap tube to connect the solenoid valve to the evap inlet. I replaced the cap tube with a TXV (danfoss 1/2 ton) and used a piece of the extracted cap tube for my defrost regulator.
