No, as already stated, "svn relocate" is for accessing an *identical* repository from a different URL from now on. This new repository is not identical to the old one: the new one already has existing content that the old one did not have. Therefore the old and new repositories must have different UUIDs. Therefore you cannot use "relocate" and must instead check out fresh working copies.
