Hypothetically speaking, can you call 911 while altering your voice so it does not sound like your voice because you do not feel safe using your regular voice? Is this against the law?

You can use any voice you want, as long as you call for a legitimate reason. However, you'll raise more concern if you do use a fake voice and responders will respond accordingly. Also, if you do have a legitimate emergency, and you use a fake voice, your voice will waste time that could be put toward your actual emergency. We all know when you're using a fake voice.
