Is post-MBA NYC IB to Asia MF PE a realistic goal?

Hello all, may I ask if it is a realistic goal to aim to exit to Asia MF PE (Apollo, KKR, Carlyle) after a post-MBA NYC BB IBD associate stint without any pre-MBA related experience? I know that aiming to exit to MF PE in NYC with such a background is near impossible, with likely only LMM and MM in reach. I am looking at Singapore as it is where I am from.
