Highly unlikely.
Microsoft has been in the hardware game for 17 years now, why would they all of a sudden jump into the handheld market now?
360 specs for a portable is already a thing, Switch is a moderate upgrade over 360 and many smartphones tablets specs are greater than 360
Portable VR/AR already exists on smartphones/tablets.
Neither of these things are going to make an Xbox Portable sell well and since 1980 when Nintendo got into the handheld market with Game & Watch, only one out of dozens of competitors have been successful.
Microsoft releasing a handheld would be a terrible idea.
When the herd loses its way, the shepard must kill the bull that leads them astray.
