Sure. Never pee on your NES, and remember to heed these words of wisdom the next time you think about it.

My first attempt at fixing my NES was successful ... sort of. It works as long as I don't push the cart down.

 

Nothing wrong with that. That means it is working like a standard card edge connector, which is what Nintendo should have used in the first place rather than that ridiculous pseudo-ZIF contraption. I use new 72-pin connectors in my NESs, and they are all tight enough to work without pushing the cartridge down (but they are not too tight; no tighter than a typical card edge connecter like you will find in most any other cartridge-based console). I prefer it that way, and it saves the connector pins from excessive flexing like happens when you push the cartridge down; and they all have worked 100% since I replaced the connectors (and disabled the lockout chip) about 6 years ago.
