Cloudlifter on an Acoustic Guitar DI?

Would a Cloudlifter work well on a live acoustic guitar path to give the pickup more gain?

It would make more sense to me to use something like a Demeter tube pre that has selectable gain and sounds GREAT on acoustic guitar. I don't think the Cloudlifter would raise the gain that much.

Not the right tool for the job. Shouldn't need something like that, unless something is wrong with your pickup or signal chain.
Not against the law though, so try it if you like.
