No way, and please don't. Region locked keys exist so that they support Regional Pricing, which makes it so that games are relatively priced based on the economy they are being sold to, a huge reason of why Steam "solved" the piracy issue of games on PC. It works the way it does so that people from those countries can have fair access, while people from a country with a better economy aren't able to use a VPN or something like that to buy games for cheaper.
