I'm not sure it's still possible to develop a AAA jrpg in one year, even while re-using the engine and models. It all depends on how much they are prepared for this (Another team already working on it ?)

Hoping on a release date too.

Pretty sure VIII, IX and X used different engines and they had different teams to finish them all within a year. But as you said in this day in age I don't think it really is possible without having years time of building engines and I doubt SE had the money to do that. I love to dream though.

Well, doing it now would mobilize two 800 people team at once, and some user on the forum had some theory about FFXVI being developped right now (with XII's director).
But in this day and age, there are multiple ways to keep the interest of people in a game or a series. DLCs every three months, Definitive/GOTY edition after a year, spin offs, etc.

But going back on the user who had a few proofs Hiroyuki Ito was directing a Final Fantasy right now, it's pretty clear that Tetsuya Nomura won't be FFXV-2 director, as KH3 is in pre-production. So there is a slight possibility that might be true. I didn't like FFXII artistic direction tough.
