Absolutely not! That is a dangerous hazard. Replace the duckhead connector with an AC cord (aka Power Extension Cable) appropriate for your region. The Apple Store should sell them and should be much better than the orginal duckhead connector. I don't believe Apple sells the duckhead adapter separately.
