If you're going to grasp at straws to back a silly argument, I might as well do the same to refute you.

1) It was harmonic convergence, so there was an abundance of spiritual energy about.

2) Vaatu was just released from the tree, so there was an abundance of spiritual energy still at the tree

3) The portals were just recently opened, so that might have had a significant effect.

4) Raava was linked with Korra for her entire life, odds are the spiritual affinity that develops from that kind of connection wouldn't just cease to exist after Raava was severed from Korra.

So yeah, maybe someone like Jinora or post-enlightenment Zaheer could have done what Korra did, since they both have such a strong affinity for the spirit world. However there were a lot of factors leading up to spirit-Kaiju-Korra, so I highly doubt it's something that can be pulled off again.

And besides, becoming a large, slow-moving spirit target is probably a terrible idea when your opponent has a massive spirit super laser.
