No, bacause then you would never get promted to login.

HTTP works by challenge/response authentication. The first
unauthenticated request is denied with an "407 Authentication Required"
error response, and the browser then prompts the user for login
information and retries the request.

If you press cancel, all that happens it that the browser cancels it's
login prompt and instead shows the "access denied" page it received
earlier from the proxy/server.
