This will not work. SSL handshake is negotiated before any HTTP traffic passes across the wire.

Or a more complete answer, if the first thing the browser receives
when going to the https URL is a http redirect header sending it to
the regular http site, then the browser will never request your
invalid certificate, and it will be back to normal.

Most web servers have a way of doing this.
