Having an extreme q 4.0, i completely understand what he's talking about. You wouldn't want freebase above, or in the screen bowl without a herb to absorb it, or it will drop down into the heat element.
With that said, your idea would work, but you would get much better vaporization and convection by using a changa, or sandwiching the freebase in the screen bowl and packing it good. Or you could use a volcano mesh screen, the ones used for hash oil. The point being that forcing the hot air through the material containing and preventing the dmt from melting and dripping into the bottom part of the extreme q, is far more effective than having hot air pass by freebase in the top part of the elbow bowl.
Your idea would probably work, its just not the most effective way to use an extreme q for dmt, and probably a bit cumbersome laying the vaporizer on its side to achieve what your trying to do. Convection works much better forcing air through a permeable medium containing said vaporizables, rather than blowing hot air over a bit of freebase with lots of room for it to just go around it, by putting freebase in the top part of the elbow bowl.

In a society in which nearly everybody is dominated by somebody else's mind or by a disembodied mind, it becomes increasingly difficult to learn the truth about the activities of governments and corporations, about the quality or value of products, or about the health of one's own place and economy.
In such a society, also, our private economies will depend less upon the private ownership of real, usable property, and more upon property that is institutional and abstract, beyond individual control, such as money, insurance policies, certificates of deposit, stocks, etc. And as our private economies become more abstract, the mutual, free helps and pleasures of family and community life will be supplanted by a kind of displaced citizenship and by commerce with impersonal and self-interested suppliers...
The great enemy of freedom is the alignment of political power with wealth. This alignment destroys the commonwealth - that is, the natural wealth of localities and the local economies of household, neighborhood, and community - and so destroys democracy, of which the commonwealth is the foundation and practical means.” - Wendell Berry
