That should work just fine.  

If you have to bake on a raised fire, try to get a good bed of coals,
then put more coals on the lid of the Dutch oven (if you can).

Technically, you should be able to bake on almost any heat source with a
Dutch oven.  If I were baking on a stove or similar heat source, I would
use a wire rack inside the Dutch oven and bake in tins to reduce the
chance of scorching the bake goods.
