I'm afraid not although it seems like a great concept.

You may pay checked baggage fees at curbside check-in by credit card.
You can input your credit card information to cover your checked bag fees. Your card will be charged immediately for the number of bags you designate at the time you check in online.
If required, you may change the number of checked bags at the airport; however, bag fees paid online will not be refunded.
Customers without Premier status who redeem MileagePlus miles for travel in United Economy will be charged checked bag fees. Customers redeeming MileagePlus miles for United First, United Global First, United Business or United BusinessFirst travel will be exempt from the checked bag fees.
Whether you pay a service fee depends on what your status was at the time you dropped off your bags. If at the time you checked in your bags you were in the United Economy cabin for seating, then you would be charged a service fee for checking a bag. If you change from United Economy to premium cabin status before you drop off your bags, then you do not pay the service fee. There is no refund for a service fee paid if you check your bags in while still holding the status of United Economy and then later upgrading to United First.
