It's an option. It's not a great option. It's very hard to say whether it will tune up with the 7300's internal tuner, because the SWR you get on an end-fed is very much dependent on "luck" (the length and loss of your feedline, height above ground, presence of nearby metal objects, etc.) The configuration I imagine you using, with the antenna transformer right outside the window, and a short feedline that's almost entirely inside, is pretty much the worst case situation in terms of getting the antenna to match, received noise, and RFI in the shack when you transmit.
My first HF antenna was exactly that, a 60' end-fed running from a second story window out into the back yard. It worked and I could make contacts on it, but it was the worst antenna I ever used for received noise and RFI, and the second-worst antenna I ever used for actually getting signals out (the worst was a coax magloop). Anything that gets you started is perfectly fine, but if you get into it and want to enjoy then I strongly suggest that you figure out how to put up something better. My current setup still has the feedline going out the second-story window, but now the antenna is a ladder-line-fed doublet with one end secured to a flag pole mounted to the front of the house near the roof, and the other end going over that tree in the back yard. It's still a compromise, but it works a lot better. I also have a trap vertical in the back yard, which is less efficient (especially since I don't have enough backyard for decent radials) but since the antenna is further away from the house it has fewer RFI issues.
