No it wouldn't.

"In analytic geometry, an asymptote of a curve is a line such that the distance between the curve and the line approaches zero as they tend to infinity."

X approaches 0. It never equals it. I just showed you what happens when X=0 when Y approaches infinity. Mathematics breaks down. 1 = 0 is a contradiction.
