I'm not really a carburetor expert, but I can't imagine that being a good idea. The fuel pump is almost certainly a low-pressure pump, and the carburetor a precision device designed to operate at low pressures. Applying high pressure air to it would seem to me to be more likely to cause damage than resolve issues.
I think some carburetors have a filter or screen on the input port that can be cleaned fairly readily without disassembling the whole thing. If it were mine, though, I would at least see about removing and cleaning the bowl part, if not rebuilding the whole carb. Sometimes the bowl can be removed without taking the carb off the engine. Sometimes it cannot.
(I assume you've verified that the choke is working properly.)
