Sadly, it only works if they existed during your own lifetime.

Unless you're a five-year-old, most of those have =p

No, no, no...

The "leaper" (Sam Beckett, played by Scott Backula in the original series) is only able to "leap" into the personas of other people at some point in his/her own lifetime. That's why Sam was able to go back as far as the early 1950's, but not before. (Except one time, due to a glitch.)

The theory behind his time travel endeavors (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantum_Leap_(TV_series)#Physics_of_leaping) was that you could "leap" to any point in the flow of time between two descreet points, those points being the beginning and ending of a person's lifetime. It was explained as an analogy with a piece of string (having a definite beginning and end) that you could tie in a loop, then crumple into a ball so that you could jump from one point in the string to another because they were now touching.

The side effect (aside from a "Swiss-cheesed" memory) was that you were you, but sort of had a cloaking aura that made you appear as someone else to the rest of the world, effectively "leaping" INTO that person, while they took your place in the lab.

I know, I've been rewatching it the last few weeks. Though I understand the physics of it all would be much more lax in an affectionate parody =p
