No!
Find out why the rads don't get hot. Disconnect the unions at the traps and see if they heat. If so, you have pressure in the returns- possibly from bad traps elsewhere in the system- or a water pocket in the return. If not, something is blocking the steam supply- possibly a water pocket there too.
