Default Can Musa Double Mahoi be container grown?

New member here, just signed up! I've been an orchid grower for about 2 years now and I've picked up a lot of interesting plants along the way.

So on a whim 5 months ago I bought a Musa Double Mahoi TC clone. It was pretty small when I got it, but it's growing at an alarming rate.
I've been keeping it at ~70-90F (Night/Day respectively) and 30-40% RH under a mixed MH/HPS lighting setup where I grow most of my other tropical and desert plants.

So my question is; Is this pot big enough to support a fully grown Double Mahoi? (See attached picture.)
I think I have enough vertical space to grow it without a problem, but it's definitely going to take every inch of space and I may have to light it from the sides.
Has anything like this been fruited indoors before? Is it possible?

I have 7.5' ceilings and I live in Montana so outdoors is out of the question...

Sorry about the dark photo, it's too bright in my grow room to get a good picture so I took it in to my living room.
