Well, sorry, no. The upstream network may very well filter what it considers
'foreign' source addresses from its net, thereby effectively blocking all
your traffic. You can *try*, ofcourse, but I wouldn't be surprised if you
cut off all your connectivity doing so.

If you want to try: the 'src' hints for routes are followed, independent of
the interface you route out of.
