I've voted no, but I think it depends on where the stadiums are.
I don't personally understand how someone like Ed Sheeran could play Wembley Stadium (or more to the point, why people would go), but he is, so a bit of me says that Jon could maybe manage it as a one-off. Certainly couldn't do it as part of a full on tour.

As a general rule I would say he could manage one arena night per location, so in the UK one London, one Manchester, one Glasgow.

However, I do think that "casuals" would snap up tickets at the last minute on the premise that they will still hear the Bon Jovi classics.

Jon would definitely sell out Berlin Olympic Stadium. Such a shame they had some logistical difficulties last time...

He could if he branded it Bon Jovi, which he could well do. He owns everything afterall.
