Question Dual hose portable air cond can i run intake hose into basement

[314monajo]

I want to install a dual hose and will vent the exhaust thru wall to outside, my question is would it be a good idea to put the intake hose thru hole in floor to basement (cooler & run dehumidifier down there) as that air would not be as hot as the outside air. I cant find anything on doing this. the thought of sucking in that extremely hot air from outside just doesn't make sense to me. thanks for any input.
