Anything is possible, doesn't mean it's likely, you could try and move to PWM to a T25 MBA and try and position yourself for it. Networking certainly helps.
It's definitely possible, but I wouldn't make it your first choice. There's no one path to IB. You're not going pick up valuation and financial modeling skills as a broker but you can always practice on the side. If you truly want to break into IB, I would recommend applying to a boutique, there are hundreds of them. You'll pick up a better skillset and have a better chance of lateraling to a better firm. As a second choice after IB, I would also recommend checking out valuation jobs, Big 4, D&P, and other valuation shops.
Its possible! Networking will probably help a lot...
Very tough without the right person pulling for you and even then, highly unlikely. Also, if you go into a "broker" role with the attitude of immediately getting out, you're likely to find yourself out of a job before you make the necessary contacts for a move.
