Its possible. But it also goes against what sony does. It will be a step backward for them.
The switch can exist because Nintendo is not and has never been about making cutting edge console hardware for almost the last two decades now. And how technology works, while in the next3-4 years you can have hardware that you can put in a portable/mobile form factor that is equivalent in power (and maybe even more powerful) than the PS4, that hardware will be nothing like the PS5. It would take another 8 to 10 years before we see hardware that is equivalent to the PS5 in a mobile form factor, and at that time what you can put in a dedicated home console would be ten years ahead again.
And that's the dilemma.
There is no such thing as "hybrid" technology. You have mobile hardware and you have desktop/tethered hardware. The hardware in the switch is quite simply, mobile hardware, its use case just allows it to be plugged into a TV. It's like being able t plug your phone into a TV/monitor. Because you can do that doesn't make that phone a PS5/SX/Gaming PC.
Tethered hardware/technology is and will always be at least 8-10 years ahead of mobile hardware.
