Will breaking all the titles on a page boost Would it help SEO in anywayto put only keywords inside header tags and style other text beside it to look like part of the header?

So, I have this suggestion by a client - asking me to break the title on every section into two tags. They want to replace <h*> tag with a combination of <h*> and <p> tag such that only very specific keywords in in the header tag and all the other words are in the paragraph tag.

So according to them I should rewrite <h1>Hello World</h1> as <p>Hello </p><h1>World</h1>, but somewhere it can even go like this <p>Hello</p><h*>World</h*><p>there</p>

I'm trying to understand what negative impact it could have?

One accessibility concern I know is - that it is causing problems with some Screen Reader tools - as the reading agent only reads a bit of title and stops, then I need to focus on another word and then reads.

<div class="mixHeading">
   <h1 data-fontsize="45" data-lineheight="63">SEO Experts</h1>
   <p>to Maximize the Impact of Web Content</p>
</div>

UPDATE: The client says - Search engines would emphasize on the exact words we want. Like here it would focus on "SEO Experts" only and drop rest text.
