It's a distinct possibility. That's why you use something nice and sharp.

I'd suggest picking up a cheap used valve cover for tuning. You can hack it up all you want, install it while tuning, and then re-install your original one after you're finished. You'll be guaranteed not to damage yours, and you'll also eliminate the possibility of any debris making its way into the timing belt area through the cut-outs.

A much better suggestion than mine. Granted, I would never cut my daily valve cover.
