Reverse isn't syncronized so it's unlikely you would get it in. If you tried, there would be grinding, serious damage to the reverse gear and other gears from the pieces. Should it somehow go in.... boom, hot oily pieces everywhere. There is a gate for reverse, if the trans, shifter and driver are functioning properly, it should not be a concern.
