Seems like a sure-fire way to break an axle. I don't know what the difference in weight is, but having hoisted both sizes up into the truck bed many times, I'd say the 9.00-20s mounted up are about twice the weight of the 16s. Plus all the other problems like not enough clearance, and the need to destroy good 9.00-16 rims (5 lug) to get centers for the 9.00-20s (6 lug). I'm sure it's been done, but so have lots of things that didn't work very well.
