Can we use blacklisted imei to activate phone ?

Just question I Google it but not right answer coming up so I might as well ask here.



I have 2 blacklisted iPhone 5s [ bought from craigslist thought would be good deal after month they went blacklisted ]

1 is Verizon

2 is T-Mobile can I use R Sim to Activate and use on T-Mobile or it won't work?



Thanks for help
