It’s worth trying, but can potentially create more issues than benefits. Especially clipless pedals, where cleat positioning is very important. Get it wrong and it can lead to all manner of foot/knee issues. Don’t just screw the cleats on randomly without thinking. You need to go through a careful setup procedure, which will inevitably require some degree of trial and error.

Also don’t expect to acquire superpower pedalling ability simply from being clipped in. You won’t go any faster, but you may or may not prefer the feel and consistency of being clipped into a fixed position. Floating cleats allow a bit more error on positioning and are certainly the best starting point.
