No. There is no way to do this. My recommendation would be replace the locking knob with a pass-through knob so that you can always have access. I've noticed a trend of no longer using both a deadbolt and a locking knob and just having a deadbolt. In my case I replaced the locking knob with a Juno signature series passthrough knob. The signature series knobs are the nicer knobs and the juno series knob in venetian bronze is a great match for the keypad.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I don't recall if the instructions mentioned this or not, bu it's real shocker when soneone locks the knob (If someone can get past the deadbolt, a locked knob isn't going to slow them down). If there is a real chance people could lock the knob (and lock you out if you stop carrying a key), consider replacing the bottom knob with one that doesn't lock. Or bury a key outside someone obscure as a backup.
