Most Surface Pro x86 devices do not let you enroll user keys through the firmware. In fact the original Surface Pro doesn't even have the UEFI MS key, so it can't even boot Shim. Following Surface devices do allow you to enroll the MS UEFI key through a firmware update (requires Windows), and starting from Surface Pro 3 iirc the UEFI MS key is builtin (but still no option to enroll your keys through the firmware).

However, they all do have the option to disable Secure Boot entirely (and you get a permanent red boot screen for the privilege).
