Container Gardening Beets

I have two ‘window box’ type planters on my back deck with full southern exposure. Could I plant some beets in them? They are only about 4-5 inches deep. I could plant one row in each planter. Also, can they be planted in the early fall? I live in NC and it is too late now to plant for the spring/summer season.
