Rerouting Arduino's USB Connector to other Pins for a different purpose ?

I have a code that inputs a PS2 keyboard's output,... I happen to have a PS2 keyboard that has a USB cabled output. I will need to do less to my project box (it houses the arduino) if the hardware USB port of the Arduino shares duties in this regard. If it did work... I would simply use an adapter from USB A to USB B.

I wonder if I used a dremmel tool to erase(destroy) the traces if I could solder up the pin routes accordingly. They aren't used after programming I would assume.

On that note... I wonder what would happen if I soldered up to it "without" destroying the traces... maybe it would function anyway(?) It probably wouldn't even read the PS2 info coming in (?)
