Not for those of us who are employed. My job wouldn't pay me more if I offered to give them more of my free time.
I could see your scenario only working for inventors or those who are self employed creating things. I would also argue, however, that without proper "time off" from work, you would get tired, weary, and less productive, resulting in less progress.
