No, you can't.

If youre planning to move to the global rom, dirty flashing will not work. You will have to reset the phone.

I suggest downloading the fastboot version of the rom and flashing it.

This will reset your phone and format it as well. But this will prevent any issues in the future which might occur from other methods since it installs everything from scratch.

From the what i know and read, in the track record of xiaomi, they give more importance to global roms, but currently if im not wrong, EU is at a higher version. Not sure if this will stay as the phone is still releasing globally and the global rom updates might start coming later.

I may try the same. Do I need to unlock the bootloader to flash the Global ROM?

If you change to a different region version rom, you'll have to unlock bootloader, after installing the rom, you will also have to leave the bootloader unlocked.
