A round bottom flask made of borosilicate glass will certainly survive that, but with beakers or erlenmeyers it depends on the size. But I would stick
to only using rbfs.

In vacuum distillations cold traps are frequently used with dry ice and even liquid nitrogen. As long as the glass is rated to operate under vacuum it
should do under cryogenic conditions.
