Are you saying that you want to cross the field to cause an opponent to pick up more than the allowed amount during autonomous?

This will hurt you:

3.2.4.1 G19
During AUTO, a ROBOT may not cross the CENTER LINE such that it is no longer in contact with the carpet on its
starting half of the FIELD.
Violation: FOUL. If contact with an opponent ROBOT, TECHNICAL FOUL.
Also, you can go into your opponent's safe Loading Zone, but, you'll get penalized if your opponent also touches the Loading Zone and then touches you:

3.2.6.3 G30
Regardless of who initiates the contact, a ROBOT may not contact an opponent ROBOT
A. contacting its PYRAMID or
B. touching the carpet in its LOADING ZONE.
