With the wind?

ATC can't force you to do something contrary to your opspecs.

True. Your opspecs may require you to divert to another airport, they
will not require ATC to change runways.

No one has suggested they will. However, my experience has been that ATC is
quite accomodating when possible (your own tower cab notwithstanding).

Even at our largest GA airport in the area, Boeing Field right next door to
Sea-Tac, if traffic permits they will allow for landings against the
existing traffic pattern (which is always determined by the Sea-Tac pattern
and can take a while to catch up with a wind shift).

It never hurts to ask, and ATC is frequently able to accomodate a special
request like that.
