Would you extend this program to a 4 days? If yes how would it look like? I also assume that you do 3 times a week 30 min of cardio? The only part I am not sure is for "Standning" military press. could you do a different one? Sitting e.g.
Typically, no, you would not do the 5x5 4 times a week. If you do you will probably find yourself overtraining very quickly. I fairly certain that if you do it, you will not have enough gas in the tank to do another day anyway. If you are interested in a four day a weeek program you might look at DFHT. As far as the military press goes, Why? You will get more from standing and you will find it is easier on your back, as far as spinal compression goes.
