One Answer:

Oh certainly. The license limit is definitely not on the total amount of data in the index, the limit is on how much you are allowed per day.

Additionally you could even put all the 15GB of logs into Splunk on day 1 - you will get a license violation warning, but as long as you have less than 5 warnings in a rolling 30-day period you'll be fine (see http://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/latest/Admin/Aboutlicenseviolations ).
