Logistic regression and linear regression



Hello,
Would I get the same results if I turned my binary data into logratios
and then run a linear regression rather than running a logistic
regression?

The reason for this is that I need to run stepwiste forward logistic
regression in matlab but matlab has no function for that so I thought
that maybe I could turn my binary variables to log ratios and then do
a linear.


PS. Maybe the question seems simple but I am not a statistics person.
.
