It can be done. But you need to compile a custom u-boot with your values in it.

I have an identical working kindle 3. I am currently creating a backup with k3flasher's script. I was thinking I could flash this to the broken one. So I suppose this will not help, right ? It wouldn't bother me to have the same mac or serial number. I won't be using both on the same network.
