No you can not. You have to be stock for KitKat. You need to revert to D80010o then ioroot22 then the "q" update then KitKat.

the only way to go back to stock recovery is to go back to stock but you can also follow this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2673736 which will allow you to have root and custom recovery

Hi Guys, I have read some topics about downgrading, but im not fully understanding if this is only for people who is already rooted or if this will work for a non rooted device. In my case i have an At&t Lg G2 not rooted with 4.4.2 kitkat and wanted to revert to 4.2 so i can root and then flash a rooted stock 4.4.2 kitkat. Is it possible to do that, even if i was never rooted? I do understand there's no root for kitkat as of now.
Thanks guys.

LG pc suite will install the latest available rom for your device which will be kitkat as soon as it is available for you. If it says that you have the latest installed, then use 'restore upgrade errors option.' After this it will probably bootloop but, perform a factory reset and everything will then be sorted.

As far as I'm concerned, there is no root for 4.4.2 yet.
Though you can get back to 4.2.2 and do some magic (Recovery, Root, Flash 4.4.2 as a .Zip, Wipe and keep the Root)
Something like that...

[Q] LG G2 D802 Root? Updated toolkit?

Hi ppl,
Just upgraded my G2 to 4.4.2 via LG software.. is there a method to root yet?
Hi mockneygeeza ,
There is a (manual) method to achieve root on 4.4.2, other than downgrading to 4.2.2. Please follow this guide.
ioroot25 says it now works on 4.4.2 devices. See http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=48709232&postcount=869. Maybe you should give it a try.

Hello there I am new on the web and I am facing this problem with my LG G2 AT&T D80010o 4.2.2.
I am stuck where I have to download 15.35 mb update tha iam aware goes before the so much large 4.4.2. I does download it and by the time that restart to complete installation gives me this error 0x1117008 saying that device is in rooting.
My device was rooted before by I unrooted by the simple way via super SU (full unroot). Did a factory reset and nothing either, now I am stuck on 4.2.2 I really don't know what to do my device was rooted but without a custom recovery just simple access to root, Please any help will be appreciate it thank you!
Read the "go back to stock" thread. Locate tot and DLL for ATT d800 442 and use lgflashtool (in same thread) then use ioroot25 to root again and enjoy.

I'm glad that you got your device fixed and enjoy the new KK but for your reference in the future
a. A question should have been posted under Q&A section, not in General subforum.
b. Do revise the title and make sure it makes sense.
