Hopefully, it will not work.

The TPM keeps an integrity value in its encrypted part.  If you flip the 
migratable flag in the public part, the integrity should fail when you 
load the key into the TPM.

While flipping from non-migratable to migratable would be a serious 
security flaw, flipping the other way is also bad.  The TPM can certify 
one of its keys as being non-migratable.  If you could flip it to 
migratable, the certificate would be flawed.
