AFAIK theres nothing illegal about putting a false amount on your W4 as long as you don't fudge it on your 1040.
There is, however, a substantial tax penalty if your withheld amount isn't at least a certain percentage (80%, IIRC, but IANACPA) of your actual tax liability. IOW, withholding (or pre-paying or its equivalent) is mandatory, and they'll fine you 'til you're dizzy if you duck it.
