Possible to move from IB to Private Banking or Portfolio Management

Hello everyone, I'm currently looking for some advice as I’ve completed a bachelor's degree in finance at EDHEC and I'm currently doing an MSc in finance at Skema. Since I started at edhec, l've done the following internships: banking customer advisor in first year, financial analyst in second year in a startup, M&A analyst in a small cap in third year, Private Placement analyst in a top 10 investment bank worldwide in fourth year. I'd now like to move into private banking or wealth management, so my question is: is it possible to switch from investment banking to private banking or wealth management as an intern and then convert to a FT position ?
