No, the airlines employ ID checkers to make sure that you didn't transfer your ticket to someone else. If they didn't, people using online checkin and kiosks would be able to cruise through without an ID.

Are you kidding??
The TSA and the ID checkers employed by them couldn't spot a fake ID if their life depended on it. And they'd never discover two similar appearing people who had swapped IDs.
If someone wants to get by the checkpoint in this manner, there is zero that can be done about it. Anyone can have airside access anytime they want. Unfortunately, the TSA chooses to harass all passengers rather than face up to this fact.
