If by "road shoe" you mean a shoe that can fit a 2-bolt cleat but which is not recessed, I would strongly avoid. Walking on MTB cleats on shoes that lack a recession is far worse than even walking on road cleats.

If by "road shoe" you mean a shoe that looks and feels kind of like a road shoe, but which does feature a cleat recession, then go for it.
I did mean road shoe not mtb shoes
Walking is at times important
The egg beaters look light and cheap
