No, it won't. Between liver and muscles you can only hold about 2 hours of glycogen 2.5 if you're well trained. If you stuff yourself for dinner then it'll just get turned into fat, and the reason you bonk in the first place is that you can't burn fat fast enough to provide all the power you're needing.
