Set screw holes to act as keyways

Is it possible to drill short close clearance blind holes through a shaft to allow a set screw to go through? This way the set screw can act as a key instead of a set screw.
Sort of like the way the dogs in WCP dog shifters are, but the screw only goes partway through the diameter shaft; that way, it can still clamp onto something.
Round shaft, not hex.
