Can you do the heat cycle break in on a stand? Or will the lack of air flow be damaging to the rig?

Most likely you wouldn't be able to build enough heat, which can be just as damaging. You want a load on the engine as well.
Most break in stands use a prop of some sort that circulates air over the engine:
