Sorry, that doesn't work. The people in the Levant at that time were Habiru, a term which describes Levantine nomads, irrespective of religion. 'Habiru' doesn't mean 'Hebrew' (although it isn't unreasonable to posit some overlap).
That aside, this doesn't do much for the Biblical account in Exodus, where the enslavement of Hebrews in the Delta region is the only reasonable reading. The Nile Delta is manifestly not the Levant.
