I don't see why not. Stripers eat anything they can get down their throats.
And, white perch are anadromous, like stripers, so they will stay live in the salt.

White perch make a great fresh water bait, for many species, but yellow perch are even better.

Back in the Mid 60's My father and I tried to use lake caught white perch for striper bait during the late spring Herring runs. It seemed like a good idea. The problem was that the perch would live only a couple of minutes at most in the salt water.
