It's of course impossible in HTML. Playing with JavaScript, you could modify
the href attribute value when the link is clicked on, or you could directly
tell the browser to go to a specific address. User agents with JavaScript
disabled or not in use would naturally keep using the original href
attribute. Maybe this is the idea? Cheating indexing robots to think that
the page links to page X when it in fact "links" to Y when JavaScript is
enabled.

Not about that particular technical idea, but I've seen a lot of crap on the
Web and many "clever" ideas of cheating, shooting oneself on the foot and
spitting at users.
