This can be done with a remote job timezone arbitrage. Someone on Pacific time working for a company on Eastern time (6am-2pm), can easily fit in 3-4 hours of work for another company after 2pm PT. This is to say nothing of those who don't have to work synchronously and have even more flexibility built into their schedules.

Sure, it's theoretically possible to structure a day in this way (assuming the company only has clients on their own coast, which would be unusual for SaaS)
The question is why a company would wish to hire someone who is only available during a short window in late afternoon for sales? That needs a stronger answer than "I'm a developer working on an unrelated product who would like to gain sales experience but only as a side hustle", because sales engineers and product managers who love talking to clients are willing to make themselves available when the clients want the meeting, not when they've finished their real job.
The more obvious way for technical folks to break into SaaS sales is to be interested in contributing to the sales effort of the company that also employs them to write the SaaS. If that involves a different employer or renegotiating their compensation package to add in bonuses... well see it as practice.
