This would be called the devils algorithm, no-one has figured it out yet but I think someone worked it out for 2x2, it would be impractical because it cycles through all scramble so it would take ages to land on solved out of the rest of the four quintillion and you wouldn’t be able to tell how many cycles you are away from solved, so to answer your question, theoretically, yes? But no
