Arrow Can I pass output sound through microphone jack?

My headphones jack is broken.
I wonder is it possible to force a sound system output sound through microphone jack?
As result I want plug-in headphones to microphone jack and get the sound.
Or BIOS handle it?

Thanks.

No.

Microphone is a sound card input. Headphone is an output.

Wiring of those circuits is one way only.
