NO.
if a team has the lead with 24 or 30 (college) seconds left, they could theoretically run out the clock if they had the option to decline shooting free throws.

the NBA is going to end up having to take action, since things are reaching a logical extreme w/ guys jumping on an opponent's back during free throws and fouling the inbounder now (I confess I did not know you could do that, I figured it was a technical).
When it effects the entertainment value of the league, their hand will be forced. I don't think that declining free throws will happen, since shooting free throws is part of the game, rather consequences of that strategy will change to discourage the strategy -- like 2 plus the ball or 3 shots or something.
