Can we "steal" dead account usernames?

So I'm sure at one time or another, you looked up a specific username, hoping to not find it so you can change your name to it. Then you see someone who has a 2* storm as their top and hasn't played for 1000+ days. That's sort of the situation I'm in. The person whose name I looked up probably played for a month and quit (Only 2015 champs and no titles).
So I have a question more towards mods, but also sort of players
Mods: I know I should reach out to support to actually go through with it, but is it "allowed" for you to change their name from say, "Hammer" to "Hammer." so a player who has actually logged on in the past two years can rename themselves that?
Players: If you have reached out to support about this, did they let you or no?
Just curious

And their names are flagged for a name change if they ever log back in.
So there does seem to be some timeframe that Kabam maybe has some automated cleanup (?) whereby they are freeing up a lot of dead names.
