No. Don't do it.
That gear was made to flex OUT upon landing, acting as the spring to distribute the force/loads. Tying it/clamping together will not allow this action and all energy from the trip will be transferred up into the fuse/engine mount.
Years ago there was a -10 builder on here that used a vehicle style lift for his project (on gear), and the lift failed causing a drop. Because the gear was locked in place (not allowed to flex out), the energy was transferred up into the fuse with incredible damage.
