Looks like the answer is no. Below is from azcardinals.com in regards to when the roof will be open.

For afternoon games during the pre-season (August) and the first two months of the regular season (September and October), the stadium roof will be closed due to the average daytime high temperatures and chance of thunderstorms during the monsoon season.

For afternoon games in November and December, the stadium roof will open if the forecasted high temperature is 75 degrees or lower and the chance of rain is 20% or less. Other weather factors like high winds or cloudy skies could also play a role in the position of the roof.

For evening games throughout the season, the stadium roof will open if the forecasted high temperature at kickoff is 85 degrees or lower and the chance of rain is 20% or less.

They should have it open more, IMHO. Or turn up the AC when it is closed. Many times it feels like it is not that cool and you're basically in a dome. If you're going to be warm indoors - just open the freaking roof and be in a real football environment.

The crowd noise is better with the roof closed...and that's paramount.
