Yes, I've done this ... but I had to build my own utility to update
clusterstate.json (for reasons I can't recall now). So make your
changes to clusterstate.json manually and then do something like the
following with SolrJ:

    public static void updateClusterstateJsonInZk(CloudSolrServer
cloudSolrServer, CommandLine cli) throws Exception {
        String updateClusterstateJson =
cli.getOptionValue("updateClusterstateJson");

        ZkStateReader zkStateReader = cloudSolrServer.getZkStateReader();
        SolrZkClient zkClient = zkStateReader.getZkClient();

        File jsonFile = new File(updateClusterstateJson);
        if (!jsonFile.isFile()) {
            System.err.println(jsonFile.getAbsolutePath()+" not found.");
            return;
        }

        byte[] clusterstateJson = readFile(jsonFile);

        // validate the user is passing is valid JSON
        InputStreamReader bytesReader = new InputStreamReader(new
ByteArrayInputStream(clusterstateJson), "UTF-8");
        JSONParser parser = new JSONParser(bytesReader);
        parser.toString();

        zkClient.setData("/clusterstate.json", clusterstateJson, true);
        System.out.println("Updated /clusterstate.json with data from
"+jsonFile.getAbsolutePath());
    }
