Hello there buddy..Of course you can use a marine style battery box..I just can't imagine what will happen with this but I think it would work based on the link you've posted.
 
Battery's naturally give off hydrogen gas and a few other not so nice things. If that builds up to a point where it could A. kill you from exposure B. blow up killing you C.catch on fire killing you D.

Seal it or vent it either way. Hydrogen gas it not to be played with.....
