While possible in some cases (e.g., temporarily granting broader permissions for testing), it's generally **strongly discouraged** due to significant security implications. Granting excessive permissions can expose your data and resources to unauthorized access. If you must do so, limit the scope and duration of the elevated permissions and revert them immediately after testing.
