Depends.

Fair amount of current models indicate mass is an effective result of the medium. This is one of the principles that leads to the idea of a higgs field. Some of the more edgy people go so far as to say spacetime itself is effectively a liquid-crystal-lattice of quark-antiquark pairs which results in mass-like behavior of matter via some similar mechanism.

Your question's a bit backwards if that apocryphal idea actually proves true; We'd need to influence spacetime itself to control mass.
