Sure, as long as you don't break the syntax.
"Does ClangFormat-like tools work on .pro files?" - I doubt.
"I need .pro file beautifier tool" - I am not aware of such a tool. Did you search on the Internet?

@jsulm I didn't find it on the Internet. Does Qt have any plans to develop this tool?

I doubt since Qt switches to cmake in Qt6 although qmake is supported too but no longer really developed.
