I wouldn't recommend it. The timing chain synchronizes all of the valves and pistons so that the valves for the right cylinder open at the proper time. If the timing chain breaks while the engine is running, you've got a really good chance of destroying your engine, and I do mean "destroying" your engine.

Timing chains rotate, much like that of a bicycle. It would make a loud clanking sound. Now it may have "jumped" off its position or may be worn out. or get a compression test,plus you'll know the car won't start likely it's the timing chain causing it.
