Reason: Typo

No. Each one of those words have their own meaning. They may convey similar meanings but each have their own definition.

A proper use of the word "literally" would be when one says a term that is typically used and understood as a metaphor but the speaker/writer wants the listener/reader to understand it in its literal sense.

Example: If I startle someone and cause them to have a heart attack then visit this person at the hospital they may say "you literally scared me half to death."

May I suggest the word "very" instead of "literally".
