Viability of a heart inside a brain

I have a species that is a descendant of modern humans, but containing superior bioengineered organs. One of these organs would be a small heart-like organ inside the head. This heart connects with the lungs, and would keep the brain alive for a period of time after the main heart failed.

My question is: would a heart located much closer to the brain keep the organism conscious for longer than without in situations where many Gs are being exerted on the organism, such as when performing maneuvers in a fighter jets?
