Hey back at ya! ;-)  Yes you could do that, it's a big enough container.  Like
most of the indeterminate cherry types they're incredibly vigourous and will
keep growing until something stops them.  So they likely won't get as large
as when planted in the ground but you'll still get lots of fruit.  You'll
probably want to apply some fish/seaweed fertilizer semi-regularly (about every
two to three weeks until August anyway) to conpensate for the nutrient leaching
containers suffer because of frequent waterings.
