Might could bond from the inside and skim coat, but I don’t know if that would work in this case. Better to weld I would think. If the hole is small enough there are other options, but new metal is best, so a patch or replacement.
Member JWA, thoughts?

Good gravy am I ever sooooooo late to this thread----sorry 'bout that but I'll my $0.02 worth anyway..................
Before I could or would make a guess offer advice I'd want to see images of the damage that's possibly to be replaced.
Mill Supply is cheap stuff with every attendant quality that implies. I'm guessing the linked part would arrive almost completely bare, not a bit of rust inhibiting material pre-applied.
The next issue is how to properly and "professionally" treat the replacement part and the area left when the old damage has been removed. The "joint" where new meets old becomes soooooooooo vulnerable to quickly forming and advancing rust so that's another issue.
POR-15 is my highly recommended material for this sort of thing but its by no means the only effective product for body repair of this nature.
If I need to expound on this I can but the OP should upload photos of his anticipated project.
HTH
