I have only limited experience mounting tubeless tires. Just on my own
mountain bike, in fact. But I really don't see how you could ever get the
tire beads to pop onto the rim's bead seat without far more air flow than
any hand or floor pump can provide. And until both tire beads are on the
bead seats of the rim, it just isn't going to hold any air. With a
compressor you can quickly raise the internal pressure relative to
atmospheric pressure and pop the tire onto the bead seat, even while air is
escaping around the tire beads.
