No. You will also cause damage that will cost you a lot more in the long run to repair than to just have an auto locksmith come out and cut a key to match existing lock cylinder, and then program car to that new key.

Happens way too often, people butcher their cars ignition, and not only do they NOT fix it, but just add to repair costs.
