Nope. Your IP is also visible by each router in-between when using such a tunnel if the machine is in the user's network (in your Amazon Echo or Google Home). You need alternative infrastructure to bypass the internet.
Installing a machine directly in the ISP building is no different from Carrier-grade NAT that is already widespread. It also leaks some data about you that can be deanonymised. It is also extremely expensive.
Edge CDNs can help a bit, though.
