Can a broken squash plant re-root itself?

[cazp]

A small courgette plant I have has snapped below its first two leaves - I stuck the broken end in the soil and it seems ok after a few hours. Can this re-root?

When i snapped the top of my cucumber last year I popped it in water and it didn't take it long to root.

Thanks Bren, might give this a go!
