ZWO ASI120 camera on Bintel/GSO dobsonian?

The ZWO ASI120 cameras have a 2" step on the body that goes straight into a 2" focuser with no adapter, they also have a screw-in 1.25" nose piece to go into a 1.25" focuser.
Does anyone know if you can get focus with one of these cameras on a Bintel/GSO 8" dobsonian at prime focus?

I know I can't get enough inward travel with a DSLR or my CSC, but since these cameras ZWO are very shallow from mount to sensor I wondered if they might come to focus with the 2" part directly in the 2" focuser.
