I suppose it cannot. Myoglobin is related to hemoglobin, but has a different oxygen affinity. It is present in your muscles, where it provides oxygen for aerobe glycolysis. Without myoglobin, your muscles would have to resort to anaerobic processing at all times, even at rest, which is less efficient and creates more harmful products that have to be neutralized. Not only would this place a high demand on your liver, it would also make the environment of your largest, most active muscle - your heart. The damage this would do to your heart would eventually lead to heart failure.
