Yes it can be done, but why not just install a switch on the ECUs control line to the PGM-FI Main Relay, it is a low current ground, so requires only a small 1A on/off switch, and only requires you to cut the lead and install the switch some place between the ECU and the PGM-FI Main Relay, you may have to extent the cut wires to the switch, depending on where you make the cut and where the switch is mounted.
Or better yet, install the switch on the ground, [ground for injector relays coil] to the PGM-FI Main Relay, that will cut power to fuel pump the injectors the ECU and some sensors, also a low current ground. 94
