I’ve thought about this. It’s at best passive aggressive. Definitely don’t do it. Among the innovative interview techniques I have yet to see is one where the interviewee is allowed to customize the process. If you have projects you can showcase let’s see them, if not take this test. Seems simple but alien to anyone I’ve mentioned this too.

I thought about this. I think it would be incredibly difficult to pull of.

Doing that means that effectively you have +2 different ways to interview candidates. Ensuring consistency, fairness and a good candidate experience with one standard process is already hard enough. I suspect you'd have a really difficult time running this process successfully. Also, inevitably some candidates would find it unfair, and complain about the option the didn't choose.
