You should never put your computer in an enclosed space, such as a cabinet or drawer when it is powered on.

Setting Up Your Computer
Before Setting Up Your Computer
When positioning your computer, ensure that you allow easy access to a
power source, adequate ventilation, and a level surface on which to place your
computer.
NOTICE:
Keep the computer on the stand and in the vertical position. Setting up
the computer horizontally (on its side) restricts airflow and can impact
performance.
Restricting airflow around the computer may cause it to overheat. To prevent
overheating ensure that you leave at least 10.2 cm (4 in) at the back of the
computer and a minimum of 5.1 cm (2 in) on all other sides. You should
never put your computer in an enclosed space, such as a cabinet or drawer
when it is powered on.
