  No. The RNA fragments must be encased by a lipid "bubble" with the spike protein receptors in order to invade and replicate within your cells. Even if you somehow injected these fragments directly into your bloodstream, your immune system and kidneys would easily destroy these waste particles and flush them out because they are not replicating. They're essentially the 'dead carcass' of this virus.
