I've got a 5 gallon bucket with 5 inches of soil in it, will a plant be able to grow and thrive in that little amount of soil depth?

It will until it doesn't. Soo no, not for long.

Why not fill the thing? You only have ~409 inches cubed at five inches which is 1/3 of the total possible volume.. You want your roots a third smaller? Your fruits a third smaller? I think not...

Make sure your bucket has holes in the bottom too.

Atleast fill the bottom with rocks so your plant will sit higher.
