Your internet connection is still limited, so no.

I don't know what would be possible with LAN traffic. Maybe there is software to use both at the same time to get more bandwidth.

if you go into "network connections" there is an option to "bridge" connections
I think that is what you are looking for.
but, as stated by TheMajor, you are still piped by your ISP, no matter how many connections you have to the router/modem
