In short, the answer is a resounding NO. Once someone actually understands how liens work, and how the foreclosure process works, one realizes that the UCC filing can not help, and anyone who says so either doesnt know better or is a scammer. The simplest way to know if something is a scam is to ask yourself this...

"If this truly cant be done, why isn't everyone doing this?"

When you buy a home, a lien is placed against it called a mortgage. This lien has 1st rights to the asset (your home) should you fail to make the payments. Should you get a 2nd mortgage against the property, this lien is called "secondary" and should you be sued by someone, that judgment lien is in 3rd position.

Now you foreclose. You are not making your payments. When the house sells at auction, the 1st lien holder gets all the proceeds. Should money be left over, the money pays the 2nd lien holder and other lien holders until nothing is left.

By filing a lien against your own property (which in itself is fraudulent, because you are impeding the due process of the foreclosure look up bankruptcy fraud and conveyance fraud.)

But for sake of argument, lets say you file this lien against your property. The 1st lien holder, or your lender can foreclose on you, without approval of the other lien holders. They have the first right. If they chose not to, the 2nd lien holder can supercede the 1st by presenting their own foreclosure case against you.

Ive been in this business for the past 5 years, and I have heard the craziest "loopholes" and theories on how to help struggling homeowners. None of them work, and those that have approached me with these schemes have all ended up in jail. I was approached with this ideal in early 2007, and that promoter is now spending 20 years in jail.

In the absence of a security agreement can a UCC-1 filing be considered evidence of a legal security interest?

The question is unclear. If a security agreement is not completed and signed by the debtor, their is no security and a UCC alone will not. If you know/believe there was a security agreement signed and cannot locate or get access to it: a UCC-1 that has the "stamp" or other certification on it that the Secretary of State "recorded" the UCC-1, then the creditor indeed has a security interest. You can call the Sec'y of State and ask the procedure for filing a UCC-1. The process of doing so, and receiveing a copy back with the recording information on it, is called "perfecting a security interest". The office can also tell you how to do a search, and the cost, to find out if the UCC-1 was recorded, and the cost of getting a copy. This is all public information, in fact, the act of filing the UCC-1 in this "public" manner is part of the legal requirement of perfecting. In additon to talking with the office of the Sec'y of State, you can learn more, including the extent this is accurate in the state in question, by talking with business lawyers and bank loan officers. Check the legal section of book stores too, many have a department with books on variuos aspects of the law, including how to create a security interest.
