It might help to explain why you'd want to do something like that or what you're trying to accomplish.

The steering knuckle is usually connected to one side of the centre of the wheel to make the wheel turn. Adjusting it such that it connects to the other side of the centre could help you achieve this, although I'm not sure how accurately.

Watching this video might give you a better idea of what I'm talking about:
