Yes, but you are asking for a world of pain. Why would you want to do this?
Linux
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Technicly yes but it'd be hard and would probably break a lot of stuff. If you need a diffrent package manager its better to just install a distro that comes with it.
curious, why would you want that?
the packages are usually built by the distro maintainers for the distro, so if you switch from, say apt
to dnf
you'd have to take care of repackaging yourself.
Yeah, wipe your current distro and install another.
Yes it probably is but there is really no sense in replacing all the packages
That's essentially what you do when you wipe your system and install another distro. If you have a separate home partition that stays intact through the process then it's especially true.
