Let's say I'm idling in space as a radiowave photon approaches; if I accelerate towards it at near the speed of light, can I make that photon blueshift and hit me as a gamma ray?

A blueshift or redshift depends on your frame of reference. Unless you are also moving you would see a redshift or blueshift.
