Sensirion recommend...
Baking: 100 – 105°C at < 5%RH for 10 hours
Re-Hydration: 20 – 30°C at ~75%RH for 12 hours
Not sure if the WH31 package would withstand that, but the bare cct board should be OK?
Ha, that was my first idea but I had the same doubt although I could do a test with the plastic (using the detachable battery protection lid).
But keeping the oven on 100+ °C for 10 hrs costs a lot more than having it beside the laptop and that is a legitimate consideration at times like these. I assume the energy prices in the UK are at similar levels as they are here? (currently there is a limit of I believe 0.7 € / kWh, it was 0.17 €) although it takes a bit more time (1 cycle per day) it seems to work with no extra costs.
Doing the bare board it would require soldering, but OK. Could be done yes.
