Yes, it will work, but I think/recall that the sound of the horn will higher-pitched "shriller".
Maybe some will comment on problems associated with holding the horn button down/on for long periods?

I rarely use the horn, but I don't want it to go pfft immediately. I don't really care about the tone, I just want sound. Thanks

I didn't have a horn relay so I used a starter solenoid from an old lawn mower,it works great.

Yes, a 6V relay will work fine on 12V.
