I think part of the reason that steam works is because it moistens and heats the felt without saturating it. That warm/damp combination makes the felt pliable so it can be stretched or shaped easier. I doubt you can get enough steam from the shower to heat the hat, only dampen it. But I will bet that you can make the wallpaper fall off if you run it very hot for an extended period.
If you only need a little tweaking, a cold water mist from a spray bottle can work... The real trick is to dry it properly.
