You generally use source routing in an attack to get to an address you
couldn't otherwise (for example, RFC1918 addresses.)

That implies that you're trying to spoof your source address, and get the
victim machine to source-route back [to|through] the real attacker IP.
It doesn't work that way. Only the originator of a packet gets to specify
that source routing is on. I know of no way to force a victim to use
source routing.

Or I'm misunderstanding your question..

Any router or bridge along the way could do that, if you had total control
over it... but I think the basic premise of what you're trying to do is
off.
