Default Fitting a new radiator to an oil combi central heating system

I want to change a radiator on my combi based central heating system WITHOUT having to drain dowm the system. I propose to use a freezing mixture on the inlet and outlet pipes and then put the radiator in place. (The old radiator has already been removed and the pipes temporarily closed off.)
My problem is will the pressure of the combi system blow the ice plugs before I can attach the new radiator? Any comments gratefully received. Thanks
