Can I use a dimmer switch on a box fan?

Smoke season has arrived in the Sacramento Valley so I turned on my homemade air filter: a cube of 4" MERV 13 air filters powered by a box fan. Even on low speed the box fan is pretty darn loud. Is there a problem with hooking up a typical dimmer switch as a controller?
