If you have room, might accomplish this by moving the circuit breaker down one spot in the breaker box? I don’t recommend it but it might work.
The motor will run, but it won't reverse the rotation. If you do this for any reason, you have to watch out for control voltage mismatch if you are on open delta/high leg 3 phase. That transformer setup produces 240 volt 3 phase and single phase, but the line to neutral voltages of the 3 legs are 120, 120 and 208-ish! If you have 120 volt controls, you stand the chance of switching the feed to the high leg and hitting them with 208 volts. Amazingly the starter coils will stand it once or twice, but only long enough for you to think everything is ok!
There are reversing motor starter setups with two separate contactors or you can install a manual drum switch to change the rotation and just use a single standard motor starter to feed power to it.
