This makes me physically cringe. No, no. Don't do this; you might end up doing permanent damage to your hearing with not one bit of improvement to your vision. The basic idea that you are mis-interpreting is that you may learn how to better use a sense if you are deprived of other senses. You will behaviorally and psychologically become more attentive to what you see-- you'll become more alert-- if you have to rely on sight rather than a combination of hearing and sight.
What you're suggesting will have no impact whatever on the actual machanics and physiology of your eyes and your vision. But it could very well lead to permanent damage to your inner ear. I know you are talking about the noise blocking technologies that are available. But they are not designed and engineered for extended, long-term use.
I went to a Beltone center for an assessment of my hearing. The technician told me about a teen-aged girl who came to him once. Her friends thought that she was kidding all the time when she asked them to repeat things to her; she wasn't getting everything her friends were saying. As it turns out, this girl had spent a lot of time in her boyfriend's car, with the speakers turned way up; you know what I'm talking about. This girl's hearing loss was not profound, but the damage was permanent. Those who have ears to hear will hear... Protect your sense of hearing; you are not indestructible.
Possibly, a safer way to test this would be with some high quality earplugs, if you clear your experiment with your pcp (who will probably have a chuckle over it) and your parents if applicable. Understand that you would be putting yourself at risk; you are often alerted to dangers because of what you hear. You don't even realize how often this happens in the course of a week.
Best approach: don't do it. It will not have the effect you are suggesting.
