Almost certainly not, although they may be unlikely to notice (assuming it's an en suite).

I'm not even sure how the physics of that would work. How would the new head increase the available pressure? Just fewer / smaller holes?

Smaller / fewer holes would probably do it, judging from what happens if you press your finger against part of the hole on your kitchen tap. It's not being spread out, it's more directed.
