Technically you could, but that’s extremely dangerous. Its as serious medical procedure and you have to be constantly monitored by a team of doctors for days at least.

compare that to withdrawal where you’re usually completely safe and just very uncomfortable. It becomes impossible to justify the expense and the risk.
