I would think this is impossible. Diagonal moves of a certain length L have always lower average mobility than orthogonal moves of the same length: (S-L)*(S-L)/(S*S) instead of (S-L)/S, where S is the board size. They would get the same reduction factor because of board population, so blocking of moves doesn't alter that, no matter how you calculate it.
