It might help. But wifi, like all radio, is a shared medium. Unlike actual transmission lines like ethernet where you get the entire electromagnetic spectrum to yourself to use multiple times, once for each twisted pair. Even if ethernet itself only uses baseband modulation and doesn't efficiently fill the spectrum it's more than enough. The reliability is incomparible to radio.
