Not a chance!

If I dyed my hair black, had surgery to alter my eye lids, took medication to alter my skin pigment and changed my name to Li I would not then be Asian. I could tell people all day I was Asian, that I'd always felt Asian and that I'd been born to the wrong race. Ad I'd be 100% wrong.

I'd be called a cheat and a fraud for checking "Asian" on any form, application or paperwork. Any genetic testing on me would come back Caucasian. And most importantly every other Asian in the world would scoff and scorn my exclamations that through my own choice and superficial actions I was now Asian.

To expect, let alone demand, inclusion or understanding from all the other Asians would be ridiculous on my part. The things that make us who we literally are all intrinsic. And unchangeable. To do otherwise is an affront to your very being and existence. An existential slap in the universe's face.
