Yes you can air up to what the tire says.
Your little camper will be about 2000lbs if your lucky. Get any flavor of load range E tires so you can stiffen up the back. Will be a much better ride in your half ton. And you can air back down to 35psi when you don't have the camper.

Rims are not rated for those higher pressures, and the idiot at the store will probably not be smart enough to put rigid valve stems on too.
