It was a logistical impossibility. We didn’t have anywhere near the force to do it. Even assuming we had bombers that could reach Japan, their Zeros would have shot them down like flies.
A big problem the Japanese had was that their fighters, especially early in the war were too lightly armed.
The A6M2 Zero had a pair of 20mm cannons and 2 rifle caliber machine guns and had great difficulty with the American 4 engine bombers.
The effective range of the 20mm on the Zero with it's short barrel was well within the effective range of the Browning .50.
