Please do not do that.  When you know(!) that dependencies are not
satisfied but are at the risk of month-long NEW queue processing,
upload to experimental instead of to unstable.

I.e. please follow Debian Policy § 5.8.1 regarding the use of the
experimental suite for packages that are not "ready to be a part of the
other parts of the Debian distribution tree".
