Indeed- the devil is in the details!
-Hardiness and variety is a factor
-Bulb 'recharge' is a factor
Sure- just try it!
Hardiness: in your hardiness zone (6,) the very popular forced paperwhite daffodils (Narcissus papyraceus) are not winter hardy for you.
Others in warmer climates might do better.
Hyacinths should do alright for you as far as hardiness.
Bulb recharge:
Also, forced bulbs expend a great deal of energy in blooming, and must recover this store of energy after blooming to live in an outdoor setting afterwords.
Imagine your forced bulbs in water-
There's no energy in water for the bub to replenish itself-
And, it now has water roots- different than soil roots. Putting them right into soil after bloom probably won't give it time to regrow soil roots, recharge its energy stores, then go dormant. It might live, but take several season cycles before it can rebloom.
Bulbs forced in soil, then allowed to grow their leaves for a time before going dormant will have much better survival odds when later planted outdoors.
Just try it!
