I do not think so.
consider a "road" warrior" with a laptop
1) when in office, usually you get 0.0.0.0/0 route, i.e. default
2) when connected via vpn, you get a bunch of routes via vpn and 0.0.0.0/0
via local ISP.
any non-default route will win because of shorter network mask no matter
what routing metric is.
