My apologies if I was misleading, I was speaking in a purely hypothetical sense.

Its not just a matter of the monitor having usb ports (which is just a usb hub).

I was meaning the monitor could utilize a usb connection if it was specially designed at the hardware level to be controllable from the PC.
This not something you can just do, this is a feature that would have to be designed into the circuit board of the monitor and...
No.

Your monitor gets a video input from your computer and that is it. The monitor can not pass any data back through the video cable.
For this to be possible the monitor would have to use a USB port, output the USB to the PC and the PC would need a driver. Only with this hardware link and software could you then make it so that a keyboard key or combination could change your input.

This not something you can just do, this is a feature that would have to be designed into the circuit board of the monitor and have custom software drivers created so that a Windows PC could control it.
