This paper is a detailed protocol for expanding and sorting antigen specific T cells after in vitro priming with autologous DCs: pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/24675735/

Antigen-specific priming of human, naive T cells has been difficult to assess. Owing to the low initial frequency in the naive cell pool of specific T cell precursors, such an analysis has been obscur...

It is doable. I didn't sort T cells with tetramers after ex vivo stimulation, but I know some colleagues were doing it. One could also do IFNg capture assay if TCR downregulation is a concern.
