Yes-it’s possible. But, look at the bright side. When the Americans/Allies decided to end the barbarity of Nazi Germany and Imperial Japan, it didn’t take very long for them to become functioning democracies.

Both of those transformations followed an international unoquivecally supported thorough butt kicking of the dictators in charge, unconditional surrender and a strong millitary and administrative presence for 50+ years.
