That would be an *awful* idea for more reasons than I can count.

Beyond that, it's generally *not( a good idea to regularly trigger
backups manually anyway except for special reasons such as testing or
if you need to generate a single backup now versus waiting for the
internal scheduling algorithm to kick in.

If you do need to *occasionally* trigger a manual backup, you shoud
use Backuppc_dump.
