I haven't tried it but I suspect Agave avellanidens will take a good amount of low desert sunshine if planted in ground, acclimated and irrigated. Here in the suburbs of Phoenix where I live there is a lot of latent heat from all of the asphalt and masonry walls (2500sqft of masonry wall around my property alone) and what not, if I travel 30 miles north and get out of the city and into sparsely populated desert areas it is noticeably cooler.

They were in full sun in Tucson at the Arizona-Sonora Desert Museum, but Phoenix heat is always a question .
