if its not designed for this you can overheat the bulb and blow it, and perhaps although less likely overheat the wiring aswell.

it is the earth that cant take the load as there is only one earth wire for both low and high beam and this will end up melting

The glass envelope of the globe is also not made for having both beams active, will result in shattered glass in no time.
