a controlled takeoff

hello to you:
just wondering as I fly my jets, my dad was a bombardier on a b17 stationed over in England, when I was young he told me when all the bombs were loaded and during take off a lot of times they will hold the brakes at a stand still and let the engines/ propellers rev up until the crew begin to feel the beginning of some shakiness release the brakes and take off with half of the runway, well the runways back then was not that long to begin with. .now that being said in real life can the pilots do that with a passenger plane? I know I do that with my jets and take off at least half of the runway. the 380s its like little over half way.
