It's what I've got on my T3. Usual caveats apply - I've had plenty of experience with conventional steel QR axles, where the bore is cylindrical and just over 5mm. I don't know whether the caps on a Fulcrum R7 are steel, whether they have a hex socket to aid disassembly, or whether the cylindrical bore (if present) is long enough to give sufficient thread engagement. If you can satisfy yourself about the suitability of the axle, then tap away, the track ends are more secure than road dropouts, and I've had no problems running bolt-on conversions in vertical carbon dropouts either.
