Again, you should follow standard procedure for derailleur adjustment. Playing with rotation outside of spec is at your risk, but if you want an answer, try it. We can't tell you ahead of time the result in your situation. There are MANY other things that can affect front shifting performance. You do not say if shifting has been worse recently, how old the bike is, if you have made any changes, etc.
