No, I don't think so.
In the kgen file it is said, which k-points form the vertices of a
tetrahedra, i.e.
1st tetrahedra, built by k-points 1,2,5,9
2nd " n,m,o,p
and so on.
When you change the mesh, this assignment will not hold anymore. In
particular at the border of the BZ some tratrahedra will consist of
k-points from the "left" and "right" side of the BZ and thus I doubt it
would would still fit.
