the idea of subliminals is that they circumvent any resistance the conscious mind may have, by slipping into the subconscious mind without being noticed by the conscious mind. So if you play subliminals at a voluwe loud enough to consciously understand what is being said, then no, they won't have the effect they are meant to have.
That doesn't mean they won't have any effect. I think that if you listen to the same text over and over again all day, every day, you wil start believing some of what is being said whether or not you go into trance. That way instead of circumventing resistance, you may be able to slowly erode it. I do think that would take a lot more time and effort than using trance or subliminals.
