No, this type of "liquidity arbitrage" is market manipulation, and illegal in the US.

eg: https://www.sec.gov/enforcement-litigation/litigation-releas...

> The cross-market manipulation involves buying and selling stocks at a loss, allegedly for the purpose of moving the prices of corresponding options, so that Avalon could make a profit by trading those options at artificial prices.

> The Court found that the two alleged manipulative trading schemes-if proven-would violate Sections 10(b) and 9(a)(2) of the Exchange Act and Section 17(a)(1) of the Securities Act.
