Is it possible Former President Trump could become Speaker of the House in 2023'?

If the House Republicans were to win back the House of Representatives during the 2022' Midterm Elections, could Former President Trump become the next Speaker of the House? You would think the answer is no. However, as it turns out House of Representatives members can vote for someone who is not a member of the lower chamber. For example, theoretically Trump could get enough votes for the nomination to be Speaker only if enough Republicans defect away from voting for Kevin McCarthy. Though this possibility is limited because in reality this theory is only for the Republican Representatives who have not been in favor of House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy's legislating tactics. In reality, Trump had no prior legislative or political experience before he became President of the United States. Trump's political experience is a huge disadvantage for him becoming Speaker of the House. Suppose House Republicans win back the House chamber in 2022', then all they need to do for Speaker of House nomination is to elect a Republican member who is qualified for the position and has great legislative experience/leadership.
