There wouldn't be a problem with doing that.

i'm sure you're perfectly capable of doing that.

the purpose of a tempo run is to keep an even pace throughout the whole run even if it means that you have to stop for a little bit. Resting gives you a chance to rehydrate, stretch your muscles up a little bit and catch your breath so you can keep the same,
even pace during the second tempo

Of course. The purpose of the tempo run is to concentrate on the speed and form AND doing the repeats the same speed.
