No, a written statement will not suffice in place of your appearance. No written statement by a witness is acceptable even if it is made in the form of an affidavit or certification, because the other party is not able to cross examine a written statement.

The only way possible would be if all parties either agreed to allow it or if they stipulated to the facts in the statement.
