No. Each iPhone will have its own IMEI number tied to the hardware and it cannot be changed or modified legally.

Apple support won't accept my IMEI instead of my serial number for Apple support Hello! I'm trying to restore my phone, so I don't have access to my serial number, but I do have the IMEI. I checked whether or not it would be possible to avail support using this instead, and it said yes; so I inputted my IMEI in place of the serial number, and all it says is "Please enter a valid serial number." I don't know where else to input the number for support. Thank you in advance!
