Bad plan. The big thing that causes knoted lines to fail is turning radius and the two eyes made like a squre knot manage that. In addition, it's hugely more trouble to make up than a nice Carrick Bend with siezed ends and that bend has been well tested as weakening the line by but 15 % to 20%.
If you go through all the work of a couple of eye splices, why not make a nice short or long splice with will not weaken the lines for the same work?
