As others have noted, you are probably not doing yourself any favors on either energy consumption or equipment wear and tear. Think about it thermodynamically, all of that solar radiant energy has to be removed whether or not you do it over the course of the day or try to do it in a short period of time. So to use your method would probably require twice the capacity (maybe more, depending on how fast you wanted it to cool down). Further consider that we generally try not to oversize AC equipment much since that reduces the run time during less than peak periods, this results in poor humidity control. Thermostat will be satisfied, but room feels "clammy". About the only justification I would consider for your situation is if you have some sort of "time of day" adjustment for your electric rates, but even at that it is probably not worth it.
