Hello,

No.

The way the system works is the neutral safety switch passes a ground to the starter relay when the transmission is in the "P" and "N" positions and when you turn the key to the start position, power from the ignition switch supplies power to the relay which then sends power from the other relay pole to trigger the starter motor.
